Marvin Jones working with younger Lions
Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones (ankle) worked out with fifth-round rookie wide receiver Quintez Cephus and free agent addition Victor Bolden at his house.
What It Means:
Jones appears to be recovered from the ankle injury that forced him on injured reserve for the final three games last season. He was also limited to nine games in 2018 by a knee issue. Prior to Matthew Stafford going down last year, Jones averaged 66.9 yards over eight games and scored 6 touchdowns. His 9 receiving scores were tied for second in the league when Jones was placed on injured reserve. Now 30, Jones appears to be embracing his role as a veteran leader on the team. He's expected to start opposite Kenny Golladay again in 2020.
Jones is the WR33 in numberFire's preseason fantasy rankings. Our models project him for 109.8 targets, 66.8 catches, 854.3 yards, and 5.7 touchdowns.
