Winona State’s Max Jones brings stout, award-backed linebacker upside
Max Jones enters the 2026 season as a 6-foot, 215-pound linebacker from Rosemount with a résumé that screams impact: Conference Defensive Player of the Year, two-time all-district, and the Pat Tillman award in Winona State’s 2026 signing class[5]. Recruiting notes and profile data point to a downhill, physical tackler with good burst and change of direction, while his measured athleticism includes a 4.90 forty and 4.19 shuttle[1][4]. If you want an energetic, tone-setting defender with leadership traits and a proven high-school production curve, Jones looks like a fit worth caring about[1][5].
