Marvin Jones

Marvin Jones Player Overview

Since losing 2014 to a broken left foot, Jones has only missed 1 game because of injury over 3 seasons. That came via a Week 12 thigh bruise in 2016. The coming season brings a challenge from WR Kenny Golladay, who appears to be ascending into his 2nd year. He could particularly threaten Jones' red-zone role. Detroit also let TE Eric Ebron walk in the offseason, though, and remained the league's 2nd most pass-heavy offense in 2017.
