On Thursday, the National Football League will begin its annual NFL Draft and head to Las Vegas, Nevada. It was back in 2020 when the league was supposed to have its event in Sin City, but, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, that draft took place virtually.
2020 was also the year that Miami Dolphins general manager Chris Grier made the best out of his third-round selection. Grier used his pick No. 70 overall to select Texas safety Brandon Jones.
Jones had a fine rookie season as a depth safety, playing 37% of the defensive snaps and appearing on special teams 54% of the time. He played in all 16 games in 2020, as a rookie, and was able to get a sack under his belt in limited action.
