The ride to Jacksonville was bumpy for Jaguars running back Jonas Gray.
Signed as an undrafted free agent by Miami in 2013, he was eventually cut. Signed to the practice squad in Baltimore, he was then plucked away by New England.
After leading New England in rushing in 2014, including a 201-yard game, he was surprisingly released before the following season. And there was one more stop with the Dolphins on their practice squad before being signed by the Jaguars last December.
Yet, despite a career that has zigged, zagged and mostly been filled with frustration as he moved from one place to the next, Gray remains one of the most confident players in the Jaguars’ locker room.
