In his fifth year with the Falcons, Jones had his best season to date. His 136 receptions for a league-best 1,871 yards and eight touchdowns earned him a spot in the Pro Bowl and his first All-Pro nod.
ProFootballFocus rated WR Antonio Brown of the Pittsburgh Steelers ahead of Jones, as he finished the first runner-up for Receiver of the Year and second runner-up for Offensive Player of the Year.
