LSU’s speed-and-playmaking linebacker with sideline-to-sideline range
In his LSU career, Deion Jones built a résumé around speed, instincts, and big-play ability, finishing with 165 tackles, 21.0 tackles for loss, and 5.0 sacks in 51 games.[1] His standout differentiators were his rare linebacker burst and ability to make plays in space, with a reported 4.38-second Pro Day 40 that helped explain why he projected so well as a modern, coverage-friendly LB.[3][4] If you want a defender who can chase, close, and create disruption rather than just absorb blocks, he’s the kind of athlete you care about.[1][3][4]
