Jones graduated from Penn State University in the early 1990s with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Journalism and a Master of Science degree in Exercise and Sports Science and is associated with their Center for Sports Journalism.[2] From 2005 to 2007, she made regular appearances on the Penn State radio program Let's Talk Penn State with a segment that shared its name with her former blog: "Keeping Up With the Jones".
In 2005, Jones was hired by the YES Network to replace Suzyn Waldman as the clubhouse reporter for Yankees games, after Waldman moved on to be the game analyst for Yankees games on WCBS radio.[2] Jones also kept a blog for YESNetwork.com, entitled "Keeping Up With the Jones", that provided news and insight about the Yankees and often featured interviews with current and former players.[citation needed] On January 24, 2012, it was reported that Jones decided not to renew her contract with YES in order to pursue other opportunities.[3] Jones' replacement at YES was announced in March 2012 with the signing of fellow Pennsylvania native, Meredith Marakovits.[4]
On April 12, 2012, it was reported Jones had been signed as a full-time, New York-based on-air contributor at the NFL Network.[6]
On WFAN, Jones has been a co-host of the football talk show Monday Night Live, formerly with WFAN's Ed Coleman, and presently Carl Banks.[7] Jones has also guest hosted on WFAN for either the Boomer and Carton radio show or Benigno and Roberts when the hosts have been on vacation or unavailable. She has partnered with Chris Carlin, Sid Rosenberg, and Marc Malusis.

Jones hosts a talk show on WFAN, and since 2000 has been covering the NFL for The Star-Ledger of Newark, where she still delivers a once-a-week notes column.
