Class of 24 | 3.31 GPA | DB/ATH |CBA Albany, NY / 1st Team All NY State 2x Large School Player of the Year / Updated Height: 5’11”Scout Analysis:  I see him as a dominant playmaker.  Jones has high level quickness seen when he competes.  He flashed a high level explosiveness combined with short-area quickness that easily stands out and grabs attention.  His performance was at high level and he earned “Top Performer” Award within the PM session from the staff.

Jones was solid in man-coverages and also displayed great defensive instincts and reads. He also has very good hands and can run very good routes with good body control, balance and flexbility seen in his skills.  He is versatile and seen as a player that could be recruited on either side of the ball.

I found him making plays all through the weekend that grabbed my attention.  He is a New York recruit with ties to New England with his brother Mac Jones; who was a high level safety that started for the Crimson at safety for 5 years.
