NFL preseason making former Vols coach Butch Jones look horrible

It’s not hard for people on Rocky Top to criticize Butch Jones’s tenure with Tennessee football. Overseeing a winless team in the SEC his fifth year at the helm will do that. But the beginning of NFL Preseason for 2019 has made Jones look, if possible, even worse.

Already criticized for misusing talent in Knoxville, two former Vols began to shine playing different positions than where Jones had them. The most notable of the two was Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Hurd.

Remember, Hurd was a five-star running back out of high school in 2014.
