A coach saying he isn't benching his quarterback is not news, it's a press conference. Jones is sitting on a -68.1 value over replacement with back-to-back single-digit-to-mediocre outings, and now he gets to do it as a 6-point home dog in a 51.5-point game script that favors Dallas running clock. This changes nothing about his fantasy outlook. Leave him on waivers where he belongs.
