Christon Jones gives Georgia State a compact, active downhill presence at linebacker
Jones is a 2026 sophomore inside linebacker for Georgia State, listed at 5-foot-10 and 190 pounds on the Panthers’ roster, with the program also showing him as #38[1]. He looks like a smaller but lively run-and-hit defender whose value is in quick trigger, toughness, and special-teams-ready energy rather than pure size; the available public data is still light on production, so he reads more like a developing depth piece with upside than a finished product[1][2]. If your team wants a fast, aggressive linebacker who plays with edge and can grow into a bigger role, he’s worth a look.
