What happened: The NFL placed Jones at No. 43 in its Top 100 Players of 2026 ranking. The list arrives before the upcoming 2026 season.
Why it matters: Jones' 87.5 career sacks explain the enduring respect. A ranking of today's best players should weigh recent production more heavily than career reputation.
