NFL Draft Perspective -- Reakwon Jones ‘Controls’ What He Can
IUHoosiers.com
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Reakwon Jones has been rocked. You bet he has. Fairness sometimes seems like a myth, whether it's a Florida family home destroyed by a Category 5 hurricane, or NFL draft preparations altered by Covid-19.
Rocked, in this case, doesn't mean broken.
"It's another one of those things that's out of my control," Indiana's former linebacker says. "I've got to let things play out."
If he forgets that perspective, his mother, Tanya Mitchell, reminds him. She and his family survived Hurricane Michael, a 2018 storm that destroyed their home in Lynn Haven, Fla., and will overcome this pandemic.
