Tampa Bay Buccaneers ran a multiple run scheme, with significant inside and outside zone, incorporating power and counter elements.
As a rookie, Jones should carve out a complementary role in a zone-heavy scheme, with the potential to develop into a volume inside zone runner.
He would be a poor fit for a gap-heavy power run scheme that requires consistent short-yardage conversions and downhill brute force.
A patient, one-cut runner best suited for zone schemes, Jones needs touches to find a rhythm and showcase his burst through the line.
Selected #38 overall in Round 2 of the 2018 NFL Draft by Tampa Bay Buccaneers out of USC.
