Despite putting up a productive stat line of 144 rushing attempts for 857 yards and six rushing touchdowns last season as the primary running back for Notre Dame’s football team, Tony Jones Jr. was viewed by most draft experts as being a fringe draft pick in the upcoming NFL Draft, with the most likely scenario of Jones being an undrafted free agent.
In order to improve his draft status, Jones Jr. would likely need a stellar performance at the NFL Combine. He would participate in the 40-yard dash, vertical jump, broad jump, twenty-yard shuttle, three-cone drill, and bench press events.
