Achilles
September 6, 2022
The Rams waived Hall (Achilles) from injured reserve Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
The undrafted running back out of SMU signed with the Rams in 2020 and operated solely on special teams, but he missed the entire 2021 season after tearing his Achilles late in the preseason. Jones was set to miss another campaign after reverting to IR at the end of July, but he'll now be free to join a new team once healthy.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
Jones' chances to to contribute in 2021 were boosted by the unfortunate Achilles' injury that befell top back Cam Akers in July. The Rams did add Sony Michel in late August, but only after a full month of Jones and Jake Funk competing for the backup job. Even if he's only third or fourth on the Week 1 depth chart, Jones could benefit from his busy summer, perhaps filling in if likely lead back Darrell Henderson is injured or ineffective.
A strong training camp paved the way for Jones cracking the Rams' 53-man roster to open the 2020 season. However, with Darrell Henderson (hamstring) potentially ready for Week 1, and veteran Malcolm Brown and second-round selection Cam Akers also ahead of Jones on the running back depth chart, the SMU product could see limited playing time to start the campaign.
