Tavares Jones brings veteran edge-setting production to Middle Tennessee
Jones profiles as a dependable, high-work-rate defensive end who turned in a career year at Middle Tennessee, starting all 13 games and posting 38 total tackles in that season while ESPN lists him with 78 solo tackles and 12 sacks on his career profile. At 6-foot-2 and 242 pounds, he offers a compact, physical frame that fits a pressure role, and the most useful differentiator is his proven availability and consistency as a full-time starter. He looks like a strong fit for a team wanting an experienced, steady pass-rush presence rather than a pure upside project.
