Football is officially back!
The NFL’s Hall of Fame game kicks off Thursday night between the Atlanta Falcons and Denver Broncos. Sure, it’s the NFL, and it’s the preseason. But … football, right? Right.
Former Alabama star Julio Jones won’t play Thursday night. In fact, he says he won’t play all preseason, but he’s on the field warming up. And by warming up, we mean showing off.
The Falcons shared a video of Jones skying to catch a pass in the corner of the end zone.

Jones is obviously the total package. The former Tide pass catcher has size, speed and incredible hands, and he looks like he’s something made in a laboratory somewhere in Tuscaloosa. Jones was recently voted on by the players as the No. 9 overall player in the NFL for 2019. Only Todd Gurley was ranked higher among former SEC players.
That’s an impressive accomplishment for Jones, but his on-the-field play speaks for itself. He’s primed for a huge year with the Falcons.
