Fri, 22 Feb 2013 10:12:11 -0800 Oakland Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie said he would like to see RB Taiwan Jones become a cornerback next season because he believes Jones has the skill set to play the position. McKenzie said it will not be easy for Jones to change positions but believes he will be able to make the change.
Fri, 07 Dec 2012 17:21:20 -0800 Oakland Raiders head coach Dennis Allen said he'd like to see more of RB Taiwan Jones and QB Terrelle Pryor in the season's final three games. Jones has only eight touches in 13 games this season and Pryor hasn't played at all.
Fri, 07 Dec 2012 15:22:09 -0800 Oakland Raiders RB Taiwan Jones said he would be willing to move to cornerback if it meant he received more playing time. Jones played cornerback in high school and college.
Wed, 05 Dec 2012 13:06:44 -0800 Oakland Raiders RB Mike Goodson (ankle), RB Taiwan Jones (ankle), WR Juron Criner (shoulder), OT Khalif Barnes (triceps), FS Matt Giordano (concussion), SS Tyvon Branch (neck) and SS Michael Mitchell (concussion) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Dec. 5, and are listed as probable for Week 14.
Tue, 04 Dec 2012 14:28:29 -0800 Oakland Raiders T Khalif Barnes (triceps), DE Jack Crawford (toe), WR Juron Criner (shoulder), DB Matt Giordano (concussion), RB Taiwan Jones (ankle), SS Michael Mitchell (concussion), TE Brandon Myers (shoulder) and FB Marcel Reece (knee, quadriceps) all were limited in practice Thursday, Dec. 4.
Fri, 30 Nov 2012 18:58:50 -0800 Oakland Raiders RB Taiwan Jones (ankle) was listed as a limited participant in practice Friday, Nov. 30, while FB Marcel Reece (hamstring, quadriceps) went through a full practice session. Each back is listed as probable for the Week 13 game against the Cleveland Browns. Fantasy Tip: Both players, especially Reece, will take a big hit in fantasy appeal if Darren McFadden (ankle) is able to play. McFadden is listed as questionable, or officially has a 50-50 chance of suiting up. Mike Goodson (ankle) is also on the road to recovery, further decreasing the values of Jones and Reece.
Thu, 29 Nov 2012 17:06:18 -0800 Oakland Raiders RB Taiwan Jones (ankle) was limited during practice Thursday, Nov. 29.
Wed, 28 Nov 2012 18:09:21 -0800 Oakland Raiders RB Taiwan Jones (ankle) was listed as a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Nov. 28.
Fri, 23 Nov 2012 19:55:30 -0800 Oakland Raiders RBs Taiwan Jones and Jeremy Stewart will serve as the team's primary backups again to FB Marcel Reece in Week 12 against the Cincinnati Bengals with RBs Darren McFadden (ankle) and Mike Goodson (ankle) sidelined.
Fri, 23 Nov 2012 14:44:29 -0800 Oakland Raiders DE Jack Crawford (toe) and RB Taiwan Jones (ankle) are questionable for Week 12. Crawford did not practice Friday, Nov. 23, and Jones was limited.
Thu, 22 Nov 2012 14:57:59 -0800 Oakland Raiders RB Taiwan Jones (ankle) and SS Tyvon Branch (neck) were limited during practice Thursday, Nov. 22.
Sun, 18 Nov 2012 14:27:28 -0800 Oakland Raiders RB Taiwan Jones (ankle) left the game early Week 13 because of an ankle injury and is considered questionable to return.
Sat, 17 Nov 2012 06:55:16 -0800 Oakland Raiders RB Taiwan Jones had just two carries in Week 10 with RBs Darren McFadden (ankle) and Mike Goodson (ankle) out of the lineup and he is expected to see limited touches again in Week 11. Offensive coordinator Greg Knapp said he needs to see Jones improve in pass protection. "We told him going into the game that the two things that we have to see improvement on is ball security as well as assignments," Knapp said. "Assignments not so much in the run game but in the pass protection and in the route running. That's still a part of his game that he's still improving on. We got to keep in mind, he's still a young player. I've got to see (that) in practice first, consistently. And I haven't seen it consistently in practice, and that's what we look for, is perfection in practice."
Wed, 14 Nov 2012 19:18:16 -0800 Oakland Raiders head coach Dennis Allen said Wednesday, Nov. 14, that RB Taiwan Jones is showing some improvement, as far as "staying healthy, knowing what to do and protecting the ball." Allen said once Jones proves he can do all of those things, his role will expand.
Wed, 14 Nov 2012 19:17:40 -0800 Oakland Raiders head coach Dennis Allen indicated Wednesday, Nov. 14, that if RBs Darren McFadden (ankle) and Mike Goodson (ankle) are out again, the rotation in the backfield in Week 11 will be similar to last weekend against the Baltimore Ravens. FB Marcel Reece had 13 carries, while RB Jeremy Stewart had seven rushes and RB Taiwan Jones had two carries.
Sun, 11 Nov 2012 17:03:41 -0800 Oakland Raiders RB Taiwan Jones managed just two carries for six yards, and one catch for seven yards, in Week 10 against the Baltimore Ravens despite the face his team was down RBs Darren McFadden (ankle) and Mike Goodson (ankle). Fantasy Tip: Jones looked to be a decent grab off the waiver wire this past week, but fantasy owners are likely to return him right back to the scrap heap after this goose egg. FB Marcel Reece saw 20 touches, and was so-so. He is likely to carry the mail in Week 11 against the New Orleans Saints if McFadden and Goodson are out again.
Sat, 10 Nov 2012 08:52:02 -0800 Oakland Raiders RB Taiwan Jones will likely get work in two-back sets, with FB Marcel Reece at fullback, in the team's Week 10 game with RBs Darren McFadden (ankle) and Mike Goodson (ankle) out of the lineup.
Sat, 10 Nov 2012 04:38:08 -0800 Oakland Raiders RBs Taiwan Jones and FB Marcel Reece (hamstring) have been splitting first-team reps in practice this week. Jones said he is looking forward to having an expanded role. "Of course I'm very excited," Jones said. "You've gotta be patient in this league. I've been waiting for my opportunity and it's here, so I'm going to try to make the most of it." Fantasy Tip: Look for Jones and Reece to see plenty of time in Week 10. Jones may see more carries at running back; however, Reece is a more versatile threat and will see his share of targets in the passing game.
Thu, 08 Nov 2012 11:16:37 -0800 Oakland Raiders RB Taiwan Jones took the first-team repetitions at practice Wednesday, Nov. 7, with both RBs Darren McFadden (ankle) and Mike Goodson (ankle) sidelined. Jones has been limited with knee, ribs and hamstring issues, but head coach Dennis Allen expects him to step up and play with the injuries to their other runners. "I feel like I've been waiting forever (for Jones to play a bigger role). I can't wait. He does amazing things in practice and he's by far the fastest person on the field and he will be the fastest person on the field on Sunday. And not that you want to see guys get banged up, but I'm excited about the opportunity he's getting," QB Carson Palmer said.
Mon, 05 Nov 2012 14:17:17 -0800 Oakland Raiders head coach Dennis Allen said RB Taiwan Jones is not receiving more snaps during games because the team sees his ball security as an issue and has to show he has improved in that area.
Fri, 02 Nov 2012 18:04:23 -0700 Oakland Raiders RB Taiwan Jones (knee) and LB Rolando McClain (toe) were each listed as limited participants in practice Friday, Nov. 2. Both are considered questionable for the Week 9 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Mon, 27 Aug 2012 05:14:07 -0700 Oakland Raiders RB Taiwan Jones likely secured the team's backup running back spot with a strong preseason showing Saturday, Aug. 25. Starting RB Darren McFadden figures to see extensive work this season, however.
