Someone’s a glutton for punishment. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that Julio Jones has returned to the NFC South on a one-year contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, bringing the overrated former Atlanta Falcons wide receiver back into conflict with a team that’s beaten him more than any other opponent: the New Orleans Saints, who achieved an 11-7 record against Jones’ Falcons teams (next-best, ironically, is the Bucs themselves at a distant second place with a 6-10 record against Jones).
