It looks like a position switch is on the horizon for Dre’Mont Jones.
Initially signed as a major addition to the Seattle Seahawks’ interior defensive line, Jones’ future on the roster may be tied to what he can do as an edge rusher. As shown in this Instagram reel by Jones’ trainer, Jackson Hayes, Dre’Mont is getting in some offseason EDGE/OLB reps.
“[Dre’Mont Jones] is going to be playing some outside linebacker this year,” Hayes wrote in a separate Instagram post. “We worked on curved runs simulating rushing off the edge, and a combination of footwork and pass drops getting him used to coverage drops, settling in to the zone and playing in space.
