J.J. Jones gives UNC a proven big-play WR with steady year-over-year production
In the 2024 season, J.J. Jones was one of North Carolina’s most reliable receiving threats, posting 36 catches for 582 yards and 6 touchdowns after back-to-back productive seasons in 2022 and 2023. His standout trait is vertical efficiency: he consistently stretches the field, with strong career yards-per-catch production and multiple touchdown plays that show he can finish drives. At 6-2 and 210 pounds, he brings size, experience, and red-zone value—an appealing fit for a team needing a dependable outside target rather than just a volume receiver.
