Felicity Jones has confirmed her interest in returning as Jyn Erso in the Star Wars universe. However, the fact that Erso died at the end of the film, when Scarif was blown up by the Death Star, meant her return initially seemed unlikely.
Jyn did survive. Cassian also survived. There were a lot of casualties on both sides, in both versions of the scripts," Whitta said. In the ending scene of the first draft, "a rebel ship came down and got [Jyn and Cassian] off the surface.
Jyn Erso is revered by the rebellion by getting the Death Star plans, but the rebel hero had a sad life filled with heartache and loneliness. She sacrificed her life to get the Death Star plans for the resistance in order to destroy the destructive weapon and save the galaxy from the throws of the Empire.

According to Wookieepedia, a comprehensive Star Wars wiki, Jyn was 22 in Rogue One. She was born in 22 BBY and died in the movie's events in 0 BBY. It makes sense as Jyn said she was abandoned at 16 and it was noted that she drifted around until her arrest for several years. So about 21–22ish.
Jyn Erso has returned to the Battlefront along with her trusty BlasTech A-180 Blaster pistol. Due to importing Jyn's pistol, this will overwrite Han's DL-44 so OT Han will still use Jyn's gun.

At the 2016 Star Wars Celebration, Edwards said the title had three meanings: "a military sign", referring to the Red Squadron from A New Hope; "the 'rogue' one" of the franchise, given it is the first film to not be part of the main saga; and a description of Jyn Erso's personality.
