The name game: Life for the Johnsons and Joneses on the Lions

ALLEN PARK, Mich. – In the wide receiver section of the Detroit Lions' locker room, the name plates can become a little confusing. Marvin Jones Jr. has his usually messy locker stall. TJ Jones spends his time a couple places down. And next to him is Andy Jones.

And this block of lockers has become a running joke among the receivers.

“We say this is the Jones block,” Marvin Jones said. “So nobody else can come, something like that. It’s fun all around.”

In Detroit, it’s also commonplace.
