Chiefs hosted Coastal Carolina RB Shermari Jones on top-30 visit

The #Chiefs brought in Coastal Carolina RB Shermari Jones for a top-30 visit on Monday.

The Kansas City Chiefs recently hosted an intriguing running back prospect on a visit.

As first reported by Underdog Fantasy’s Josh Norris, the Chiefs hosted Coastal Carolina Chanticleers RB Shermari Jones on a top-30 visit on Monday. Chiefs Wire has since been able to confirm Jones’ visit to team facilities.

Listed at 6-foot and 213 pounds, Jones started his college career at Independence Community College in Independence, Kansas. That’s probably when the Chiefs first caught wind of this player. If you’re a fan of the Netflix original series “Last Chance U” you might remember Jones from Season 4. He racked up nearly 1,400 yards and 14 touchdowns in junior college before transferring to Coastal Carolina.

In his two seasons with the Chanticleers, Jones carried the ball 243 times for 1,438 yards and 16 touchdowns. Surprisingly he only caught four passes for 47 yards during his time in Conway, South Carolina. The majority of his production came during his senior season, a year where he helped Coastal Carolina to their first bowl win in school history.

Jones participated in the Chanticleers pro day on April 1, posting a 4.55s 40-yard dash, a 33.5-inch vertical, a 122-inch broad jump, a 4.44s shuttle, a 7.39s 3-cone and 20 repetitions on the bench press.

If you’re not familiar with top-30 visits, they are different from private workouts. Teams will host a total of 30 prospects at team facilities, where they can tour the facility, meet with position coaches, front office executives, scouts and members of the training staff. On occasion, they’ll get a chance to meet with a few players who are working at the team facility, but they won’t do any football activities or workouts during the visit. It’s essentially a way for NFL teams to fill in some blanks in their scouting reports and get to know how a player will fit within the team culture.

Jones is one of four reported top-30 visits so far alongside Georgia DT Devonte Wyatt, Jackson State LB/DE James Houston IV, and Pittsburgh TE Lucas Krull.
