O'HARA: Jones Jr. sticking to his offseason routine

Marvin Jones Jr. is looking at the present – not the past, and not anything much further in the future than the workout he’s doing on a given day.

After vowing to improve his performance over his first season with the Detroit Lions, Jones did just that last year.

Jones undertook a stringent offseason workout program that included training with Randy Moss, one of the most dominant wide receivers in NFL history and a first-ballot inductee in August into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

The payoff for Jones was that he rose in the statistical ranks of the wide receivers and was one of the most dangerous deep threats in the league.
