JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — New Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon may be new to the NFL, but that won't change the way he works on the field.
The confident ball carrier was the first playmaker taken by the Jaguars in this month's NFL Draft, and he knows that he was taken high because of what he brings to the team. That's why he will be following the advice of his legendary Alabama head coach Nick Saban.
"[Coach Saban] told me to just keep 'doing me,'" said Yeldon on Thursday.
"When I got drafted, Coach Saban gave me a call congratulating me but he just told me to keep working hard and do what I always do.
