Sun, 22 Jan 2012 14:44:56 -0800 Green Bay Packers WRs James Jones and Randall Cobb are expected to compete for playing time during training camp next season.
Sun, 15 Jan 2012 17:27:55 -0800 Green Bay Packers WR Jordy Nelson was disappointing in the Divisional Round playoff game Sunday, Jan. 15, against the New York Giants, posting just 39 yards on three receptions.

Thu, 15 Dec 2011 08:21:29 -0800 Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers pointed to WRs James Jones and Randall Cobb as players he expects to help make up for WR Greg Jennings' (knee) absence. "We'll miss Greg," Rodgers said. "Greg is a great player. This team last year taught us anything, the next man up has got to step in and produce. We're expecting (to see) James getting more opportunities and Randall to step in and play well."
Sun, 11 Dec 2011 19:44:37 -0800 Green Bay Packers WR James Jones had just two receptions for 29 yards in Week 14 against the Oakland Raiders. Jones has just two total catches in his past two games after managing 94 yards with a score in the Thanksgiving Day game in Week 12.

Thu, 24 Nov 2011 13:44:18 -0800 Green Bay Packers WR James Jones caught three passes for 94 yards and one touchdown against the Detroit Lions in Week 12.
Wed, 16 Nov 2011 21:28:33 -0800 Green Bay Packers WR Jordy Nelson has not only surpassed WR James Jones, whom he split No. 3 receiver duties with last season, but he is ahead of WR Donald Driver as the team's No. 2 receiver. Nelson has been targeted 46 times, and he is just 11 catches shy of a career high. He has already passed his previous career high of 582 yards in 2010, as he sits with 633 yards heading into Week 11.
Mon, 14 Nov 2011 21:09:20 -0800 Green Bay Packers WRs Donald Driver and James Jones were fairly quiet in Week 10 against the Minnesota Vikings. Driver had three grabs for 36 yards, while Jones was good for just nine yards on one catch.

Tue, 11 Oct 2011 10:47:01 -0700 Green Bay Packers WR James Jones has received more looks in the team's multi-receiver setups, and he is being re-integrated into the offense. Through the first three games he had played in 38 pass plays and in the last two games he has been a party of 50 passing plays. "We feel like we've got a number of guys that can play in our three-receiver offense and we want to do a good job divvying up the snaps so to speak. James made the most of his opportunities yesterday, and it was good to see," offensive coordinator Joe Philbin said.
Sun, 09 Oct 2011 21:13:34 -0700 Green Bay Packers WR James Jones had five receptions for a game-high 140 yards in Week 5 against the Atlanta Falcons. He also had a 70-yard touchdown reception in the third quarter.

Sun, 18 Sep 2011 17:16:10 -0700 Green Bay Packers WRs Donald Driver and James Jones each posted just one reception in Week 2 against the Carolina Panthers. Driver finished with 10 yards, while Jones managed 15 yards.
Thu, 15 Sep 2011 05:41:44 -0700 Green Bay Packers WR James Jones said he deserves to be on the field more often. Jones saw just 19 snaps in Week 1. "And I want to say half of them were jumbo (three-tight ends package) run plays," Jones said. WR Jordy Nelson received most of the snaps in the three-receiver set, which has been one of head coach Mike McCarthy's favorite personnel groups, and Nelson matched WR Greg Jennings with eight targets, catching six of them for 77 yards and a touchdown. "You've seen the film, you know who's No. 3," Jones said. "Me and (Randall) Cobb, we're slash four and five."
Fri, 09 Sep 2011 16:59:58 -0700 Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator Joe Philbin said Friday, Sept. 9, that WR James Jones is still in the team's plans after he was used little in the Week 1 win against the New Orleans Saints. "(Jones is) going to be fine. He's going to have his day," Philbin said. "He's going to have big games for us and make major contributions." He made little contribution Thursday, Sept. 8, posting just one reception on his only target.
Tue, 30 Aug 2011 21:04:24 -0700 Green Bay Packers WRs Randall Cobb (knee) and James Jones (knee) are both dealing with knee bruises, and they are not expected to play in the preseason finale Thursday, Sept. 1, against the Kansas City Chiefs. The two receivers did not practice Tuesday, Aug. 30.
Mon, 29 Aug 2011 22:53:16 -0700 Green Bay Packers WR James Jones has managed just one reception for 14 yards through three preseason games, and he has been targeted a total of three times. "I don't think just because a guy hasn't caught many balls in preseason games would justify saying he's not productive," receivers coach Edgar Bennett said Monday, Aug. 29.
Fri, 26 Aug 2011 18:24:32 -0700 Green Bay Packers WR Greg Jennings (knee) was inactive for the third preseason game Friday, Aug. 26, against the Indianapolis Colts. He missed practice Wednesday, Aug. 24, due to a bruised knee. He was reportedly moving around fine, and it might just be a precautionary move. WR James Jones made the start in his absence.
Sat, 20 Aug 2011 21:37:09 -0700 Green Bay Packers WRs Chastin West, Diondre Borel and Tori Gurley have looked good during training camp and during the preseason, but the Packers could have trouble keeping them all. The team usually carries five receivers on their roster, and it appears WRs Greg Jennings, James Jones, Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb and Donald Driver are a pretty safe lock to make the team's final roster. They could opt to keep six receivers this year, but they would have to sacrifice depth at another position.
Thu, 04 Aug 2011 10:31:50 -0700 Green Bay Packers WR James Jones could receive an increased role in the offense this season if WR Donald Driver's play shows signs of decline.
Thu, 04 Aug 2011 10:22:09 -0700 Green Bay Packers WR James Jones said he worked on improving his over the shoulder catching ability because he had some drops in that situation last season.

Sat, 30 Jul 2011 10:55:27 -0700 The New York Jets are exploring the trade market for a No. 2 receiver to complement WR Santonio Holmes.

Sun, 07 Nov 2010 22:22:57 -0800 Green Bay Packers WR James Jones caught eight passes for 123 yards and a touchdown in a Week 9 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He may have scored again later in the game, but dropped an easy pass in the red zone.
Thu, 04 Nov 2010 20:01:30 -0700 With Green Bay Packers WR Donald Driver (thigh) out for Week 9, the team is going to rely on WRs James Jones and Jordy Nelson to step up, reports Gary D'Amato, of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Jones said the only thing that changes is they may see a little more opportunities come their direction. Jones noted that he understands how some criticize him as being inconsistent, but noted it's not completely his fault. "Consistency comes with opportunities. If I go one week with zero balls and the next week I get four balls and the next I get two thrown my way ... I mean, it's not all my fault. I can't throw it to myself," Jones said.

"[The defense] might have a check where if '80' is in the slot we're going to play this, if it's '88' we're going to play that. The hope is that you can catch them in the right situation based on how you line up."

"If you go through the films, James Jones, just from a production standpoint, probably stands out as one of the top performers through the OTAs.
