Marcus Jones, Kevin Harris become latest Patriots draft picks to sign their rookie contracts

The New England Patriots have signed two more members of their 2022 draft class. As was announced by the team heading into the weekend, cornerback Marcus Jones and running back Kevin Harris have both put their signature under their respective rookie contracts.

Jones, 23, joined the Patriots as the 85th overall selection in the third round. He started his college career at Troy before transferring to Houston after his sophomore season, starting 17 games for the Cougars over two years and establishing himself as a physical defensive back and dangerous kick returner.

While he is on the shorter side at 5-foot-8, 175 pounds, Jones is an explosive athlete who offers a highly intriguing skillset.
