Ayden Jones is Texas State’s tone-setting linebacker with proven tackle production
In the 2025 season, Ayden Jones was Texas State’s fourth-leading tackler with 56 stops in 12 games, adding 1 tackle for loss and 2 QB hurries, after a strong 2024 at Prairie View A&M that included 53 tackles, 6.5 TFLs, a sack, an interception, a forced fumble, and 3 pass breakups. He looks like a rangy, all-over-the-field defender who can find the ball from hash to hash, and his production suggests a player with instincts, range, and a knack for finishing plays. For a team needing an active, physical linebacker who can communicate and create disruption, he’s a very believable fit.
