Chris Jones: Seminoles' Big Transfer Win | Florida State Seminoles Football News

Florida State just pulled off a major defensive upgrade by landing Chris Jones, a 6-foot-1, 230-pound linebacker from Southern Miss who led the Sun Belt with 134 tackles last season — plus 9.5 tackles for loss and 3.5 sacks. Already earning preseason All-ACC honors, Jones is poised to be a plug-and-play starter and breakout star in the ACC. Known for his run-stopping ability and coverage reliability against tight ends and running backs, he’s expected to immediately elevate Florida State’s defense — provided he stays healthy. With his elite play already on display, Jones could be the key piece that helps the Seminoles turn their season around.
