Some players talk.Some pose.Some chase attention.

King Jones does none of that.

He simply lines up, locks in, and brings it every snap.

At linebacker, Jones has become the heartbeat of his defense. Not because he demands the spotlight, but because the game finds him. When the ball moves, King is already there.

BY THE NUMBERS

King’s season wasn’t loud it was dominant:

• 63 Solo Tackles

• 8 Tackles for Loss

• 10 Sacks

• 4 Forced Fumbles

• 2 Interceptions

• 2 Defensive Touchdowns

Those numbers don’t come from chasing stats. They come from preparation, discipline, and effort.

A COACH’S DREAM

What separates King Jones is not just athletic ability it’s his mindset.

He is:

• Easy to coach

• Physically tough

• Mentally tough

• Locked into his assignment

He listens.He adjusts.He executes.

That combination makes him a coach’s dream and a nightmare for offenses.

BUILT FOR THE MOMENT

King doesn’t look for attention.He doesn’t celebrate early.He doesn’t chase hype.

He plays the game the right way — with speed, physicality, and purpose. Whether it’s filling the gap, hunting the quarterback, or creating turnovers, Jones shows up when the moment demands it.

SETTING THE TONE

Every defense needs a standard.Every team needs a player who brings consistency, toughness, and accountability.

For this unit, King Jones is that standard.

And when he lines up in the middle, everyone knows:

The tone has already been set.
