Let’s talk about another corner the Cowboys could have interest in. This time let’s keep it in Texas, and take a look at the University of Houston’s Marcus Jones. Jones was a prolific returner as well as a productive corner for the Cougars. Over his career he amassed nine career interceptions for 134 return yards and a score, as well as 31 pass deflections. That, combined with 73 kick returns for 2,075 yards and six touchdowns and 63 punt returns for 881 yards and three touchdowns make him a dynamic threat who can influence two of the game’s three phases.
His career accolades include 2020 Phil Steele All-America First Team (Punt Returner), 2020 FWAA All-America First Team (Punt Returner), 2020 PFF All-America Fourth Team (Cornerback), 2020 American Athletic All-Conference First Team (Return Specialist), and more.
He fills up the stat sheet, but barely fills out a uniform. Can he cut it in the pros? Let’s take a look at his film to find out.
