1.8 YAC per reception actually 

He's a 30 y.o. receiver. (31 now) 
Separation and YAC are understandably no longer dynamic aspects of his skillset in his 10th NFL season. 
A few folks around here like to bash the guy as useless, but I don't get it. 

73 catches (2 drops) 832 yds, 4 TDs is a respectable number for an aging guy in a dysfunctional offense. 

If they'd had a healthy Chark and a competent HC/OC combo game-planning - Jones would have been a more than satisfactory contributor to the receiving corps last year. 

I have no idea how he'll fit into Pederson's plan and how the roster will shake out  - but he's still a capable reserve player at the very least. Probably a good guy to have in camp for the incoming rookies at WR as well.
