Syracuse Football: Chandler Jones makes history as 1st team All Pro

Just when you thought the 2019 season was over former Syracuse football stud Chandler Jones continues to make history.

On Friday Jones was announced as a 1st team All-Pro at linebacker after an outstanding 2019 campaign:

  • 19 sacks (only a half-sack away from leading the league)
  • 8 forced fumbles (tied for the lead league)
  • 7 strip-sacks (led the league)
  • 20 tackles for loss
  • 26 quarterback hits

This is the second time in three years that Chandler has been named a 1st team All-Pro. That makes him the fifth player in Cardinals history to earn more than one 1st team All-Pro honor in his career.
