GREEN BAY, Wis. – Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur has a need for speed. General manager Brian Gutekunst is trying to find the right fit in this month’s NFL Draft.
A source confirmed that Tennessee speedster Velus Jones is in Green Bay on Wednesday for a predraft visit. Jones’ visit was first reported by Pro Football Network’s Aaron Wilson.
At the Scouting Combine, Jones ran his 40 in 4.31 seconds, making him one of the fastest players in the draft. He measured 5-foot-11 3/4 and 204 pounds.
Jones, who is considered a Day 3 possibility, could fill two holes at once.
