Detroit Free Press sports writers Dave Birkett and Carlos Monarrez discuss how Lions coach Jim Caldwell should address his future.
The Detroit Lions drafted wide receiver TJ Jones on May 10, 2014. Seventeen months and a day later, he caught his first pass for the Lions. On Sunday, Jones caught his first touchdown pass in the NFL on a difficult play that required him to beat two defenders.
It appears nothing has ever come easy for Jones. He had a strong career at Notre Dame, but a shoulder injury sidelined him his entire rookie season.
