In addition to DeAndre Hopkins, the Tennessee Titans are also trading away Ernest Jones IV, a key defensive player in the 2022 Super Bowl.
Wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins strengthens champions Kansas City and quarterback idol Patrick Mahomes – and Ernest Jones IV is also leaving the Tennessee Titans.
According to consistent media reports, the Titans have agreed to another trade: Jones is going to the Seattle Seahawks in exchange for fellow linebacker Jerome Baker and a fourth-round pick. This is Jones’ second change this season. It was only in August that the Titans acquired him from the Los Angeles Rams by sending a 2026 fifth-round pick to LA.
Ernest Jones IV changes again
The 24-year-old Jones won the championship in his rookie year with the Rams in 2022; in the final against the Cincinnati Bengals, he contributed seven tackles and one sack to the title coup.
This season, the 24-year-old has already made 44 tackles, making him the second-best tackler for the Titans, who are at the bottom of the AFC South with a 1-5 record. At Tennessee, Jones quickly established himself as a starter alongside Kenneth Murray Jr. and took a leadership role, playing 91.2% of the defensive snaps. Jerome Baker recorded 37 tackles and one sack in his first season with the Seahawks.
Both Jones and Baker will become free agents after this season. The Seahawks hope to keep Jones beyond this season ESPN reported.
