So he’s probably your RB in obvious running situations like goal line and shorter distances.

He's depth, and if those reports are true, he won't make it out of camp.

Wow this guy didn’t fumble one time in college. I think this can be fixed.

Perhaps the most impressive (and valuable in the NFL) is that Jones and fellow 2018 rookie Phillip Lindsay, were the only two running backs in the NCAA to have at least 250 rushing attempts without recording a single fumble. Although used sparingly in the passing game, Jones was still able to have an impact totaling 186 yards and one touchdown. Overall, Jones hauled in 14 of his 15 targets resulting in 140.6 passer rating when targeted

Looks like Veach is hoping that he can get him back to the basics and undo whatever happened in Tampa.

Not a glowing endorsement.

I'm not a CEH fan at all, but to be fair, he only had that issue for part of the season last season...Jones has had issues holding on to the ball most of his career. Dude also can't catch at all.

I think half of his issues are because of Arians. Arians doesn’t seem like the kind of coach that actually coaches anyone up. He puts his system in place and if you can’t do the job he wants immediately….you’re benched. He’s not there to coach you up. He’s there to win games and that’s it.

Somebody embed please!

I like RoJo, and always have. He’s obviously nothing special, but he’s a good solid back.

Let’s go!

Also, whether it’s McKinnon or Williams, this team has done a pretty good job adding veteran FA backs the last few years.

NFL blocks it from being embedded, so you have to use the link anyway.

So he's a Darrel Williams replacement, that cant catch, with a little more speed to maybe bounce to the outside and get to at least the LoS?

Would have rather just let CEH do the interior stuff and let McKinnon work the edge.

OnTheWarpath15 03-26-2022 09:23 AM

76 catches in 4 years, he'll fit right in.
