In March 2022, New England Patriots defensive back Jonathan Jones took to social media to share a message with the world.
“‘Positionless’ football is the future,” he wrote on his Twitter account. What prompted that statement is not known, but it very well might have been an early preview of things to come. Jones’ team, after all, is very much moving in that direction right now.
