For the right price, they\u2019d find another No. 2 for the coming season.<\/p>\n<p>Jones is due to make only $3.25 million in 2026. If someone trades for him with the idea of making him the starter or a competitor for the job, he may want a raise. That adds another wrinkle to the situation.<\/p>\n<p>For now, it makes sense for the teams that are looking for quarterbacks to look to the open market.
