Read EvaluationScott Burgess | Prep Redzone Scout
Jones is one of the premier defensive players in the 2026 class. He has a great frame at 6’4″ 245 pounds with burst off the edge. Capable of going around or through opposing offensive tackles. Super long arms allow him to shed in both pass and run game getting tackles off balance along with getting off blocks to get to the back. His quickness, athleticism, and power combination really stands out. Has the size and strength to set the edge. Hits with force. Bats down or alters throws by getting his hands up on passes. Plays as a 3-4 defensive end for Mt. Carmel, but he has the versatility to also play as a 4-3 edge or even slide inside to a three technique in pass rushing situations.
