The Dolphins plan to sign veteran defensive lineman Jason Jones, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported Friday.
Jones visited the Dolphins in March and again last month.
Jones has played multiple positions across the defensive line in his eight-year career, which started when the Titans picked him in the second round in 2008. He played the last three seasons with the Lions.
With the compensatory pick threshold for free agents having passed, players like Jones who were still on the market could find new teams quickly.
Jones started 31 games over the last two seasons for the Lions and had 9.5 sacks during that time
