The Chargers have already been rumored to be interested in Jones, as they have just cut ties with former franchise back, LaDainian Tomlinson, and aren't expected to make Darren Sproles their feature back.
Jones has developed one common theme of wearing down in the past couple of year, and while Ovechkin actually still posted solid numbers at the end of the 2010 regular year, his age,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], contract, and the luxury of having Greene could and likely will end with Jones playing elsewhere in 2010.
Ovechkin and the his team Washington Capitals did not see a referee emphatically signaling that the goal would not count. Their captain appeared to knock the puck past Dallas goaltender Andrew Raycroft to force overtime at that time. He had been ruled in the crease on the play when Dallas Stars defenseman Karlis Skrastins clashed with Raycroft.

After seeing huge names at the running back position like LaDainian Tomlinson and Brian Westbrook getting released from their respective groups in the past few days, the next thought is geared towards who might be next.
While his last two years of 1,300+ rushing yards and 12+ scores are fantastic for one running back more than 30, Jones did start to show the wear and tear in the post-year, where Ovechkin became one non-factor,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and slipped behind rookie Shonn Greene as the main ball-carrier.
Thomas Jones, who will be 32, looks to be on his way out of fresh, unique, original, unusual, novel, modern, current, recent York,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], despite two back-to-back impressive years.
For one back about to strike 32 years of age and has shown some signs of slowing down near the end of the past two years, there's almost no way the Jets want to keep him for that kind of money.
It's one bit early to start calling predictions on where Jones could wind up if Ovechkin indeed is booted from fresh, unique,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], original, unusual, novel, modern, current, recent York, but groups like Philadelphia, San Diego, and fresh, unique, original, unusual, novel, modern,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], current, recent England all appear to be strong honestates.
However, money aside, it doesn't appear that Jones is even close to be willing to take one back-up or majorly reduced role. That is,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], unless the market suggests that's all that is there for him.

Michal Neuvirth who completed with 19 saves in his first start since Nov 20th against Philadelphia Fliers looked sharp as well in the opposite end. Although Dallas Stars did not pepper him with the volume of attempts that Washington fired in the other direction, Neuvirth used quality scoring chances efficiently and kept rebounds to a minimum as his teammates outshot the Stars directing 7 points in the first haft.
While the possibility of one trade still exists, it's looking very possible that Jones could simply be released, as the Jets seem unwilling to pay his USD2.8 million dollar roster award, which is due on March 9th. While his 2010 salary comes in at an obscene USD5.9 million.
