An established international prop, Jones made his Wales debut against Tonga in 2017, before earning his first start in the Six Nations the following year.

At domestic level, Jones played for Llandovery RFC in the Welsh Premiership, before joining the Scarlets in 2013. The 32-year-old made his Scarlets debut in 2014, achieving 136 appearances, helping the Llanelli based club win the Pro12 title in 2017.
Speaking on his signing, Jones commented: “I’m delighted to join Quins and can’t wait to test myself in the Premiership, and work alongside an exciting group of players. I’ve heard great things about the Club and the supporters, and I’m excited to work with Bomb (Adam Jones) to improve my game and help Quins achieve our objectives this season.”
