Matt Jones arrived at organized team activities this spring more confident than the rookie running back who shared carries with Alfred Morris last season. Jones showed flashes of success in 2015, but concerns about ball security clouded the positive things he was able to accomplish.
At times, Jones said he felt like he was second-guessing or putting too much pressure on himself to bounce back with a strong performance after he fumbled.
With Morris now on the Dallas Cowboys, the starting job is in Jones‘ hands and he’s worked hard to improve his ball security skills and take a leap forward as the team’s lead back.
