Velus Jones Jr. is mostly known for being a kick returner for the Chicago Bears but in preseason, he may have gotten a new opportunity.
On Saturday, in a win against the Buffalo Bills, Velus Jones Jr. scored a touchdown and had six carries for 34 yards. As it turns out, he caught the eye of his head coach, Matt Eberflus.
" I thought it was positive," Eberflus said. "He did a nice job of really getting north. He's got really good lean mass and he's a physical player and you could see him really deaden the tackles to fall forward for those positive yards."
