Penn State Football: 3 former Nittany Lions who still need an NFL team in 2021
DaQuan Jones
2020 season – Tennessee Titans: 49 total tackles, two sacks one forced fumble
A former fourth-round pick, DaQuan Jones has been an anchor along the Titans’ defensive line, and done an exceptional job both stopping the run and commanding double-teams which allows Tennessee’s linebackers to get after the quarterback.
Last season, produced three sacks, added 22 total pressures, and produced a 67.7 overall grade from Pro Football Focus.
Earlier this offseason, the Titans pilfered pass-rusher Bud Dupree, so there is a chance that they bring back Jones as a run-stuffing nose-tackle. However, if the organization believes they can get younger at the position and add a player who can be more disruptive as a pass-rusher during the NFL Draft, there’s a chance that Jones winds up elsewhere in 2021.
