Standing tall at 6'1.5" with blazing speed honed on the high school track, Elijah Jones has all the physical tools to become an impact cornerback at the next level. His journey from a three-star recruit out of Harlem to a First Team All-ACC selection at Boston College is a testament to his drive and development.
Jones arrived in Chestnut Hill in 2018 amid little fanfare, redshirting his first year before earning playing time in 2019.
As the NFL Draft approaches, teams are meticulously evaluating prospects, searching for that hidden gem who could bolster their roster. Among the intriguing names on the board is Elijah Jones, a promising cornerback from Boston College, hailing from the streets of Harlem.
At 6'1" and 185 pounds, Jones cuts an imposing figure on the field, with his long arms and impressive athleticism. A standout in both football and track during his high school days, he possesses the rare blend of size, speed, and agility coveted by NFL scouts.
In a blockbuster move aimed at fortifying their secondary, the Tennessee Titans have acquired star cornerback L’Jarius Sneed from the Kansas City Chiefs, per reports from ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The deal will see the Chiefs receive a 2025 third-round draft pick and a 2024 seventh-round pick swap in exchange for the 27-year-old defensive back.
Sneed, who was franchised by the Chiefs earlier this month, will now ink a new lucrative contract with the Titans that is expected to make him one of the highest-paid cornerbacks in the NFL.
