Lions

Lions WR Marvin Jones said there is a “new feel” to the organization compared to when he played in Detroit from 2016-2020. 

“It’s a new feel for sure,” Jones said, via NFL.com. “And I think when I came here, the first thing everybody said is, ‘Hey, Marv, it’s different, you’re going to love it.’ The culture’s different, the coaches, everything. It’s not the same. So I think that was definitely one of the reasons why it was definitely appealing for me to come back here and, why not?”

Jones said he will wear the number zero after using 11 during his previous tenure with the Lions, which is currently being used by WR Kalif Raymond.

“It was a family decision,” Jones said. “They voted, and I was just like, ‘Let’s do it.’ Be the first one to rock the 0 in Detroit, so why not?”
