The Cardinals are keeping an in-house free agent from hitting the market as they’ve signed wide receiver Zay Jones to a one-year, $4.4 million contract extension that will keep him with the team through the 2026 season.

The Arizona Cardinals and wide receiver Zay Jones have agreed on a deal that will bring the veteran back for another season. Jones will return to the Cardinals on a one-year deal that is worth $4.4 million.

Jones has agreed to a one-year, $4.4MM deal, Fox Sports’ Jordan Schultz reports. That marks a healthy bump in pay compared to the $2.25MM pact he played on in 2024. The 29-year-old will be counted on to remain a secondary member of the team’s passing attack. The deal is now official, per a team announcement.
