Jones did not play on the weekend due to an upper-body injury but is expected to draw back into the lineup on Monday against the St. Louis Blues. The 24-year-old Jones is averaging 15:48 time-on-ice and has five points (1G / 4A) in 13 games this season.
Victor Mancini will be a healthy scratch for the first time this season, allowing Jones to re-enter the lineup. Jones has not played the last three games and has one point (0G / 1A) through four contests this season.
Jones has appeared in only one of the Rangers' previous three games and will return to the press box on Tuesday as Erik Gustafsson returns to the lineup.

With Jacob Trouba returning from a two-game suspension, Jones will be a healthy scratch for the Rangers on Wednesday. The 23-year-old Jones has been semi-productive from the blueline in limited action with the Rangers this season, scoring five points (1G / 4A) in 17 games.
Jones was a late addition to Thursday's lineup after Mika Zibanejad left warmups with an undisclosed injury. Jones will draw in as the Rangers will opt to dress seven defensemen in Zibanejad's absence.
Jones will re-enter the Rangers lineup as K'Andre Miller will not suit up due to personal reasons. The 23-year-old Jones has not played since November 27th and has three points (0G / 3A), averaging 13:16 through 11 games this season.
Jones spent most of the 2023 season in the AHL, collecting 31 points (8G / 23A) in 54 games with Hartford. During his brief time with the Rangers, he had two points (1G / 1A) in 16 games, giving him a combined eight points (1G / 7A) in 38 career NHL games. The one-way deal suggests that Jones is a part of the Rangers' blueline plans for the 2023-24 season.
