At 35-year-old, Julio Jones’ legacy is secure. He’s a seven-time Pro Bowler, was a perennial All-Pro, and is the NFL’s 17th all-time leader in receiving yards (13,330) despite just about a decade’s worth of time in the league.
But one crucial, lionizing aspect missing from the likely future Hall of Famer’s career is a Super Bowl win.
After a relative dud of a year with the Titans and Ryan Tannehill, Jones probably couldn’t have picked a better team in the Buccaneers to finally get over the hump. I mean, Tom Brady and all of his seven Super Bowl rings? Come on now. If anyone can finally get a great player like Jones to the summit, it’s Brady.
