Julio Jones has returned to pursue a tricky Super Bowl ring.
The seven-time Master Bowler and double cross All-Star beneficiary endorsed with the Philadelphia Falcons, the group reported on Tuesday. NFL Organization Insider Ian Rapoport announced that Jones will begin in the group's training crew with the assumption that he will be immediately raised to the 53-man list one he finds a good pace.
The 34-year-old Jones featured with the Atlanta Birds of prey for the principal ten years of his vocation, driving the NFL in getting yards two times, including an eye-popping 1,871 on 136 gets in 2015. The enormous bodied collector was a field-shifting weapon in Atlanta, ready to extend the field and tangle the ball in rush hour gridlock. He created 12,896 yards and 848 gets in his initial 10 seasons.
Then, at that point, wounds started to strike. In the beyond three seasons, Jones has played only 29 games with three groups because of injury issues.
In June of 2021, the Birds of prey exchanged the star to Tennessee, where he showed up in 10 games, getting 31 passes for 434 yards and a TD and adding six snatches for 62 yards in a season finisher game.
Last season, Jones endorsed with Tom Brady's Tampa Narrows Marauders, playing in 10 games, netting 24 gets for 299 yards and two scores. His last game with the Bucs arrived in a 31-14 season finisher misfortune to Dallas, wherein Jones got seven passes for 74 yards and a TD.
Presently, the 6-foot-3 wideout rejoins previous Titans partner A.J. Brown in Philadelphia. With Brown and DeVonta Smith as Jalen Damages' top targets, Jones can make music as a third fiddle in Philly.
The Birds have battled to find creation from the third-beneficiary spot with Quez Watkins managing a physical issue. Through six games, Brown has amassed 672 yards and two TDs (counting four straight challenges over the 120-yard mark). Smith acquired 334 yards and two scores. The Birds' next wideout is Olamide Zaccheaus (likewise a previous Jones colleague in Atlanta), with four gets for 74 yards and a TD.
The inquiry is how much is left in the tank for Jones heading into his thirteenth NFL season. Even in the event that it's only a negligible portion of how the situation was playing out, it merits a flier for Philly. What's more, it's worth the effort for Jones to pursue a Lombardi Prize.
