Rams' Ernest Jones: Rams' leading tackler at Arizona
Jones recorded six tackles (one solo) and a pass defensed in Sunday's 37-14 win at the Cardinals.

Jones has seen slightly smaller snap counts since suffering the injury prior to Week 6, but he's still played over 75 percent of Los Angeles' defensive snaps over the past two weeks and has totaled 14 tackles (eight solo) over that span.

Rams' Ernest Jones: Double-digit tackles in win
Jones recorded 10 tackles (seven solo) during Sunday's 26-9 victory against the Cardinals.
A swollen knee kept Jones out of practice until a limited showing on Friday, but it didn't stop the talented linebacker from again leading the Rams in tackles, a familiar refrain through the first third of the season. With a whopping 63 tackles through six games, Jones sits in a tie for fourth in stops with Baltimore linebacker Roquan Smith. He'll look to keep stuffing the stat sheet in a Week 7 contest against one of the weaker offenses in the league, the Steelers.
