Dolphins cornerback Byron Jones says that he is unable to “run or jump” due to injuries that he’s sustained in the NFL in a series of candid tweets on Saturday.
Jones, 30, missed all of the 2022 season after undergoing surgery last spring to repair an injured Achilles. According to ESPN, the 2015 first-round draft pick was expected to be ready for the start of the campaign but was never activated off the physically-unable-to-perform (PUP) list.
Taking to Twitter Saturday, Jones responded to a 2015 tweet from the NFL’s official account that lauded him for his broad jump performance at that year’s NFL scouting combine and reflected on how his situation has changed since coming into the league as a star defensive back out of UConn.
