GREEN BAY – James Jones was released by two teams in a span of four months, yet the Packers couldn’t be happier to have him back.
That in itself sums up the “crazy business” that Jones referred to several times on Monday upon returning to Green Bay, where he played the first seven seasons of his career (2007-13).
The veteran wide receiver lasted just one year in Oakland and one training camp with the Giants, but he comes back to the Packers feeling like he’s “got a lot to give,” and it’s easy to understand his perspective, the recent setbacks notwithstanding.
