Raiders expected to release James Jones
Veteran spent one year in Oakland
By: Mike Krueger | May 4 2015, 7:00 am

Veteran receiver James Jones is being released by the Raiders. The San Jose native received a phone call from general manager Reggie McKenzie on Sunday evening informing him of the news. Jones confirmed this information to CSN reporter Fallon Smith via text message. Jones had 73 recpetions for 666 yards and six touchdowns in 2014, in what will be his only season as a Raider.

FFToday's Take: The addition of rookie Amari Cooper and the signing of Michael Crabtree have left Jones expendable. Jones has never topped 900 yards in his career but did score 14 TDs in 2012 while in Green Bay, finishing 16th among receivers in fantasy points. Cooper, Crabtree, Rod Streater and Andre Holmes sit atop the receiver depth chart in Oakland.
