They weren't too happy about it, but Tulane center Junior Diaz and tight end Charles Jones got to know each other very well during 2016 season.
Both players had their seasons cut short in 2016 after suffering season-ending injuries early in the year and were forced to watch from the sideline as the Green Wave struggled to find ways to replace them.
Jones suffered a high ankle sprain in Tulane's second game of the season and three games later he tore ligaments in his ankle and broke a bone in his foot that resulted in him undergoing two different surgeries.
