Starting in 2012, Jones was announced as the host of The Footballers' Football Show, a programme which discusses the key football issues of the week.[2][unreliable source?] In June 2013, Sky Sports announced a brand new show for the 2013-14 season called Saturday Night Football, for their coverage of 5.30pm Saturday evening Premier League fixtures. The show was presented by Jones alongside Jamie Redknapp with an audience of football fans debating current football issues.[citation needed] The audience was later dropped but Jones and Redknapp continued to host the show until Sky lost the rights for the Saturday evening matches in 2016. After the departure of Ed Chamberlin to front ITV's coverage of horse racing, Jones became the main football presenter on Sky Sports in August 2016. Jones now presents the flagship Super Sunday and Monday Night Football programmes alongside pundits such as Jamie Carragher, Graeme Souness, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, Micah Richards, Roy Keane and Gary Neville.[citation needed] When Sky Sports launched their new week nightly football discussion programme The Debate in August 2017, Jones hosted the first show.[citation needed]
In addition to this, Jones was heavily involved with Sky Sports' live UEFA Champions League coverage and has fronted numerous live England international matches.[citation needed]
