Derrick Jones Derrick Jones 5'10" | 190 lbs | LB Jack Britt | 2026 State NC (LB, Jack Britt, Senior) has been one of the most reliable and well-rounded linebackers in the Carolina Recruits Region this season. With 63 total tackles — averaging nearly 13 stops per game — he’s been the anchor of Jack Britt’s defense. Jones is especially tough against the run, filling lanes and bringing a physical presence in the box, but what separates him is his versatility. He can drop into coverage and match up with slot receivers or running backs out of the backfield, making him a true three-down linebacker. His combination of production, toughness, and athleticism makes him a key leader for Jack Britt and a standout name on the mid-season defensive watchlist.
