Jones projects as a movable chess piece in a Tampa-2, Cover-2, or Quarters defense that likes to mix and match coverages.
He can contribute as a core special teamer in Year 1, with a ceiling of developing into an impact nickel or box safety.
He would be wasted in a pure single-high safety system that does not ask its safeties to play near the line of scrimmage.
A versatile defender with good athletic traits and a high motor, Jones offers schematic flexibility to a modern NFL defense.
Selected #70 overall in Round 3 of the 2020 NFL Draft by Miami Dolphins out of Texas.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
