New Chargers DT Justin Jones answers draft call while in the shower

COSTA MESA, Calif. -- Justin Jones didn’t expect to get a call from an NFL team on Day 2 of this year’s draft.

The defensive tackle out of North Carolina State said he had a barbeque planned for a small gathering of family and friend on Saturday, the final day of this year’s draft.

After bowling earlier in the day, Jones said he went home to shower and watch the rest of Day 2 of the draft at home.

But while in the shower, Jones’ phone rang. On the other line was Chargers GM Tom Telesco with the news that the Chargers had selected Jones at No.
