STRENGTHS
Matt Jones is a huge back, and on the hoof he’s very impressive. Jones is a very good athlete, and quicker than you’d expect for 231 pounds. He is a crushing back between the tackles and runs with authority. He shows good body lean and will fall forward for plus yards, and he has shown himself capable of picking up yards after contact. Jones is an ideal “thunder” complement to a faster back already in place. He’ll break tackles and move the chains on tough runs. As a receiver, he wasn’t used much, but he has solid hands when thrown to.
