Will Jones II brings veteran ball-hawk production and turnover juice to North Texas
In the 2025 season, Will Jones II was a third-team All-American Conference safety for North Texas, starting all 13 games and posting a career-high 68 tackles, 2 interceptions, 2 pass breakups, 3 forced fumbles, and 2 fumble recoveries[2]. He’s a seasoned, physical playmaker with proven ball skills and a knack for punching the football loose—exactly the kind of disruptive secondary piece coaches love. The catch: at 5-10, 186, he’s undersized for some schemes, so his best fit is a defense that values instincts, urgency, and takeaways over pure length[2][14].
