The Green Bay Packers will host Florida State cornerback Jarrian Jones on an official top 30 visit ahead of the 2024 NFL draft, per Ryan Fowler of The Draft Network.
Teams are allowed to host up to 30 prospects on visits ahead of the draft. Packers Wire is tracking all the reported visits here.
Jones (6-0, 190) intercepted five passes, recorded 15 passes defensed and produced 84 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, 1.0 sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery over 44 games.
Jones was named Florida State’s most improved defensive player in both 2022 and 2023. He was an All-ACC pick and the team’s winner of the Bobby Bowden Leadership Award in 2023.
After giving up five touchdown passes in coverage in 2021, Jones became a lockdown defender over the last two seasons, allowing zero touchdown passes while intercepting four passes across 56 targets into his coverage in 2022 and 2023, per PFF. He earned an elite coverage grade and an elite man coverage grade during the 2023 season when he played almost 90 percent of his total snaps in the slot.
Jones registered a Relative Athletic Score of 9.87 out of 10.0. He produced elite jumps (39.5″ vertical, 10-9 broad) and a 40-yard dash time of 4.38 seconds.
Jones is PFF’s No. 98 player overall in the class, putting him in the late Day 2, early Day 3 range.
The Packers re-signed Keisean Nixon to play in the slot, but Jones could be an ideal player to develop there long-term.
