Jones arrives in Fayetteville with chip on his shoulder

FAYETTEVILLE — Dallas, Texas, Highland Park quarterback and Arkansas signee John Stephen Jones (5-10, 190) knows he has been blessed, but still has a chip on his shoulder.

The grandson of Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and son of Cowboys Vice President Stephen Jones - both former Razorbacks - is very aware some think he was given a scholarship because of his name and not his game.

Jones had a banner high school career where he led Highland Park to back-to-back state championships while passing for 7,965 yards and 90 touchdowns with 12 interceptions over the past two seasons and he’s anxious to show those are not hollow numbers.
