Hearing nothing from any of the 32 NFL teams by the end of the three-day 2010 NFL draft, former Holy Cross defensive lineman Aaron Rodgers disappointedly thought he was completely a loser of the draft. However, two weeks later, he finally received a call from the best team of last season, the New Orleans Saints.
Graduating from South High School in 2006, Jones had been selected to All-Patriot League for twice while playing with the Crusaders. He also managed to earn second team honors in 2009 and first team honors in 2008. With is help, the Crusaders had leading record of score in the Patriots League with 34.4 points per game, 455.4 total yards on offense per game and 348.9 passing yards on offense per game. Attending both Pro Days at the University of Massachusetts and Boston College, he might have impressed some Saints coach in one of them.
Jones has been excited for being able to put on Saints jersey after a short while of surprise. Although a tryout chance is still far away from a real roster spot with the defending champion team, he made it clear that the chance itself is worth waiting and he will try his best to earn a real Saints jersey.
