Introducing the Patriots Newest Three-Phase Weapon, Marcus Jones

The Patriots have never shied away from using versatile players in all three phases to help the team win games.

Whether it was Troy Brown or Julian Edelman occasionally flipping to defense, or goal line packages with former linebacker Mike Vrabel, New England has an old-school mentality when it comes to players being used in multiple roles.

Next in line for the do-it-all Patriots is third-round draft selection Marcus Jones, who has now made his presence felt on offense, defense, and, of course, special teams in his rookie season.

In college, Jones won the Paul Hornung Award as the nation's most versatile player in his final season at the University of Houston.
