Former Los Angeles Rams linebacker Ernest Jones returns to the NFC West after just six games with the Tennessee Titans in the AFC South.

According to ESPN’s Brady Henderson, the Titans are trading Jones to the Seattle Seahawks for linebacker Jerome Baker and a fourth-round pick. And yes, that’s more than the Rams got for Jones less than two months ago when they shockingly shipped him to Tennessee right before the season started.

The Seahawks are trading LB Jerome Baker and a fourth-round pick to Tennessee for LB Ernest Jones IV, a source tells me.

Somehow the Titans managed to get more for Jones than the Rams. As part of the Rams deal, they sent Jones and a sixth-round pick to the Titans for a fifth-rounder. It obviously reflects poorly on the Rams, who everyone believed they should have gotten more for Jones, but they were apparently desperate to keep him off the roster.

Jones played six games for the Titans, recording 44 tackles, three tackles for a loss, two pass breakups and a QB hit. He will now have a chance to face the Rams this season, not once, but twice.

The Rams face the Seahawks next week in Seattle and then again at home in Week 8 – which will be Jones’ first game in Los Angeles, assuming he isn’t subbed off a third time.
