Jones was 210 last season, before losing some weight (unsure why). He was very much a bigger back who could catch.

The roster from last year shows him at 190. When specifically asked, he said he lost the weight to make him quicker. Jones did show he was a competent pass blocker in 2020 and he did run routes well enough in 2020 to get some catches, 21 receptions for 156 yards. That is 26 yards per game, which isn't that remarkable. I remember a couple of wheel routes that were important plays at the time. He seemed to regress subsequently IMHO. I had hopes for him as a "bigger" back, but he in fact went the other way and got lighter. I wonder if he got some bad advice from the staff. Hard to know given the OL performance but I never really saw him as a guy that could move a pile.
