FRISCO, Texas – Dallas Cowboys passing game coordinator and defensive backs coach Kris Richard likes what he has seen from Byron Jones as the fourth-year player makes the move from safety to cornerback in 2018.
“He’s long. He’s got strength. He’s got speed. He can jump over this place,” Richard said. “He certainly does fit the profile.”
One play in particular from Tuesday’s minicamp practice stood out.
In seven-on-seven drills, Jones worked in press coverage at the line on Allen Hurns and was able to reroute him enough.
