Myles Jones weighs in on Texas A&M’s ‘slept on’ secondary

The Texas A&M Aggies have one of the most experienced secondaries in the entire SEC heading into the 2021 season.
The leaders of that unit, particularly at the cornerback position, are Myles and Jaylon Jones.
And, the 2 Joneses are eager to make sure they’re known across the country this fall. Myles said on Sunday that he feels like people don’t know exactly how good Texas A&M’s defensive backfield really is:
Jones on A&M DBs: "I feel like we've always been slept on. We keep proving people wrong and proving those who believe in us right."

He added that he and Jaylon work great as a duo, saying plenty of receivers are going to be stranded on “Jones Island” in 2021:
Myles Jones on relationship with fellow corner Jaylon Jones: "That's my brother. You hear 'Jones Island.' What makes us better is that we come every day to work."

Texas A&M will be counting on its defense to carry the load in 2021. If the Joneses are as good as advertised, it could be a long year for opposing offenses.
