DaQuan Jones Signs With The Buffalo Bills

DaQuan brings a defensive presence by clogging the middle that the Bills desperately need. He's a run-stopper that can put pressure on the quarterback as well. You may have heard the saying "the best ability is availability."

Jones certainly has that. He's been a full-time starter since 2015 and only missed 4 games in 2017 and hasn't missed any games since. He signed a two-year, $14 million contract, with $10.6 million guaranteed

At Johnson City, he was not only a football star, he also played basketball and threw the shot put. I remember reffing one of his modified basketball games, even as early as a 7th grader, I could tell that young man had the potential to go places...and he certainly has.

Speaking of Johnson City, he hasn't forgotten his roots and is doing what he can to give back. Recently he and his wife opened the Legacy Lounge in downtown Binghamton near the Visions Veterans Memorial Arena.
