D.J. Jones' Path From North Carolina's Starting RB to Full-Time DB

Posted Aug 18, 2023
D.J. Jones — who started at running back in the first game of the season a year ago — didn’t want to transfer from UNC, but also wanted to stay on the field and contribute. So he approached Mack Brown in January about the prospect of changing positions. "I feel like I could do more for the team than what I was doing last year," Jones said on Thursday. (Inside Carolina)
