Jones' itch to return 'like poison ivy times a million'

When TJ Jones got to Allen Park last May after being drafted in the sixth round by Detroit, he was at his athletic peak at 6-foot, 188 pounds.

Shoulder and nerve troubles would wipe out his rookie season, however, and at one point following surgery last year Jones said he weighed 170 pounds because he wasn’t able to lift or work out.

It’s been a long road to recovery for Jones, but he can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.

“At this point I’m feeling great,” he told detroitlions.
