Former Pro Bowl defender just uttered the unsaid about Julio Jones

Atlanta Falcons fans know exactly how dangerous Julio Jones was in his prime, but the rest of NFL consistently forgets. Julio was one of the most productive receivers of the generation, yet Antonio Brown, Calvin Johnson, and Odell Beckham Jr. were all talked about more often than Jones ever was.

It was a marvel to watch him week in and week out, as the seven-time Pro Bowler helped define Falcons' football alongside Matt Ryan in the 2010's. And that's why it should have came as no surprise when former star cornerback-turned NFL analyst Richard Sherman praised him as such.
