Top landing spots:

According to multiple reports, Julio Jones is expected to be released by the Tennessee Titans during the 2022 NFL offseason. Unfortunately, he spent just one season with the Titans, plagued by injuries. He appeared in just ten games last season for his new team after spending the first ten years of his career with the Atlanta Falcons.

Before dealing with injuries across the past two seasons, Jones was one of the most dominant wide receivers in the NFL. He recorded more than 80 receptions for 1,350 yards in six consecutive seasons. In each of those years, he was selected to the Pro Bowl and was chosen as a first-team All-Pro member twice with three second-team selections.

Net Worth:

Julio Jones net worth and salary: Julio Jones is an American professional football player who has a net worth of $50 million.

His September 2019 three-year $66 million deal with the Atlanta Falcons made him one of the highest paid athletes in the world. The contract came with a $25 million signing bonus and was fully guaranteed.

Release:

Jones was signed through the 2024 season. It is likely he will be released with a post-June 1 designation, giving the Titans $9.5 million in salary-cap savings.

The Titans acquired Jones last year along with a 2023 sixth-round draft pick from the Atlanta Falcons in exchange for a 2022 second-round pick and a 2023 fourth-round pick. The move was supposed to provide much-needed balance to Tennessee’s passing attack.

Jones, however, appeared in just 10 games because of injuries and had career lows with 31 receptions for 434 yards and just one touchdown reception.

Return:

“It looked like we were headed in the right direction and then had some setbacks along the way,” Titans general manager Jon Robinson said at the NFL scouting combine.

“Unfortunately, he wasn’t out there enough to really make an impact week after week. When he was out there, he helped our football team. But it was one of those things that seemed like a nick every week that we were trying to work through.”

“That’s a balance that you always work through as players’ careers start to get a little longer. You see some things and wonder if that was an isolated instance or is this going to be a repetitive thing.”
