Freshman LB Kylon Jones gives Southern a young, physical chess piece
Kylon Jones is a 2026 freshman linebacker at Southern who checks in at 6-1, 230 pounds and arrives from New Orleans’ Edna Karr, a program known for producing tough, ready-made defenders.[1][2][3] His profile suggests a downhill, contact-first linebacker with good size for the level, and the key question for a fit is how quickly he translates that physicality into consistent snap-to-snap production in Southern’s rotation.[1][2][3]
