The Seton LaSalle prospect had more than two dozen offers before the Lions' decision to pursue him. That's a rarity as far as Smith is concerned; he's typically very quick to identify his top targets, especially when it comes to players from the Pittsburgh area.

Jones is listed in the Industry Ranking as the nation's No. 341 overall prospect, No. 36 cornerback and No. 11 player in Pennsylvania. ■ C L A S S O F 2 0 2 7 C O M M I T M E N T S * Name Pos. Ht.
