Grant Jones came into Liberty from LCA as one of the highest rated recruits to ever suit up for Liberty football. Last season, under head coach Danny Rocco, Jones saw playing time in 8 games. This season he was scheduled to redshirt, but then injuries happened.
Injuries to All-American Malcolm Boyd and Stan Herring forcing them both to miss the rest of the season. This has forced Coach Turner Gill’s hand in having to play people he might not want to. But why burn Jones’ redshirt now? There’s only 3 games left to play. Surely there are Tight Ends, Fullbacks, Defensive Lineman, etc. that can pitch in to save Jones a year of eligibility.
