Ravens herald DT Travis Jones ‘unusual’ combination of strength, speed and stamina

The Ravens netted a 6-foot-4, 335-pound defensive tackle in the third round of the 2022 NFL Draft in UConn’s Travis Jones. But with such size and frame, don’t just consider him to be a run-stopping nose tackle. In 2021, Jones generated 47 tackles, 7.5 for loss with 4.5 sacks in 11 starts.

When asked about Jones, Ravens General Manager Eric DeCosta said his pass-rush potential is unique.

“I think that’s unusual about him,” DeCosta said. “He’s a bigger guy. When you guys see him, he’s going to kind of harken back to some of the guys we’ve had come through here.
