Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones looked like he was well worth the new contract he got this offseason.

Jones had 141 yards and two touchdowns on nine receptions in the Falcons’ season-opening win over the Philadelphia Eagles.

It was his fifth game with at least 100 receiving yards and two touchdowns, tied for third-most in Falcons history.
