Jonathan Jones connects with New England Patriots’ Auburn contingent

Jonathan Jones and Will Hastings are teammates again. But Jones remembers Hastings as a walk-on freshman kicker at Auburn when he was a senior cornerback for the Tigers. Now Hastings is a rookie wide receiver for the New England Patriots, while Jones is preparing for his fifth NFL season

“I remember Will from my time at Auburn,” Jones said during an online press conference this week. “One thing I know about him: He worked hard. He’s a guy that likes to show up and work hard. He was a walk-on, so it just goes to show to his work ethic.
