HAMILTON — The Hamilton Tiger-Cats hired Chris Jones as a senior defensive assistant and cut ties with assistant head coach and defensive coordinator Mark Washington on Monday.
The club said in a release that Jones will take over defensive play-calling duties after it"mutually agreed to part ways" with Washington.
The move reunites Jones with Ticats head coach and offensive coordinator Scott Milanovich. The two led the Argonauts to a Grey Cup title in 2012 with Milanovich as head coach and Jones as defensive coordinator. The 57-year-old also won a Grey Cup ring as a defensive line coach with the 2002 Montreal Alouettes and as defensive coordinator with the Calgary Stampeders in 2008.
