Not saying that Jones will hang until he's in his 40's, just throwing out the "anything's possible" angle. Despite his age, and off-field antics, he's was one of the top 10 CBs as rated by the NFL last season. So, with his play not really falling off, his salary for a top 10 performer at his position, is really quite a bargain.
It may just depend on what the Bengals want to do.
If he shows no signs of aging and plays well maybe they option him back in 2018.
Say he does slip in his play some next year due to age.
The Bengals could not exercise his option yet bring him back cheaper & in a non starting role if no other teams pay more or want the headache.
Later Mike Brown may even add him to the Coaching Staff after he retires to be certain Pac Man has Money to support his Kid.
All up to Mike.
