Watch Christion Jones take a punt back for a CFL touchdown

A 61-yard punt return for a touchdown by Christion Jones helped the Saskatchewan Roughriders defeat the Hamilton Tiger-Cats 31-20 in a Canadian Football League game on Thursday night.

A former Minor High School and Alabama standout, Jones returned five punts for 93 yards and three kickoffs for 74 yards against Hamilton.

The Tiger-Cats lost a 10-point halftime lead, but were still within a point when Jones broke loose on his touchdown return in the third quarter.

Jones has returned four punts for touchdowns in his 17 games with the Roughriders.
