Matt Jones 2018 Outlook: Yes, He's Still In The NFL
7 years agoThere is a very small chance Matt Jones could be fantasy relevant for a hot minute this season. As we know, Doug Pederson is going to utilize a running back by committee. Jay Ajayi, Corey Clement, and Darren Sproles will all share touches. Jones is tentatively expected to beat out Wendell Smallwood and Donnell Pumphrey for the fourth RB spot. Sproles is 35 years old. Ajayi is a mediocre runner and a mediocre talent. Clement is an undrafted free agent that somehow found himself as a satellite back. I'm not saying it is at all likely, but Jones could find his way into the rotation relatively easily. I don't think Jones has the talent to do anything with his spot, but maybe he has a relevant week or two. There is absolutely no reason to draft him, though.
