The biggest reason why Jack Jones is a member of the Las Vegas Raiders is familiarity.
When the New England Patriots decided to cut ties with the talented 2022 fourth-round pick during last season, it was obvious the Raiders would likely put in a waiver claim on Jones. He played for then Raiders’ interim coach Antonio Pierce at Arizona State and at high school at Long Beach Poly.
It was destined to happen.
Now, heading into his first full season with the Raiders’, Jones has another familiar face on the coaching staff. New assistant head coach Marvin Lewis, who was a consultant to end with the Raiders to end last season, was at Arizona State with Pierce and Jones as well.
