When Big Ten football got postponed in August, many players reacted with the emotions of missing an entire year of play. For Maryland wide receiver Jeshaun Jones, the cancellation was a much heavier hit.
After missing his entire sophomore campaign due to a preseason ACL tear, Jones feared that his return to the gridiron might not come as soon as expected. The return of conference play saved that, and the wide receiver didn’t miss a beat in his first game back on Saturday night.
“With everything going on, I was thinking like ‘dang’, I won’t be able to play football for two whole years, that’d be two years off,” Jones said.
