The Patriots made their first defensive selection of the 2022 NFL Draft on Friday night, adding a pretty dynamic player to their football team.
They selected University of Houston defensive back Marcus Jones with the 85th overall selection, who brings a lot of terrific attributes to a team that addressed more than one need by grabbing him.
Jones initially began his career at Troy before transferring to Houston, where he ultimately became one of the top players in the country. He also won the 2021 Paul Hornung Award winner as the nation’s most versatile player as Jones excelled in quite a few roles during his collegiate career.
