Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
During multiple interviews on ESPN, Jones sounded optimistic about his chances of being ready in time for the regular-season opener but those interested should follow his progress closely in coming months. ... Meanwhile, Jones isn't bitter about the Lions' pursuing other running backs, either through free agency or the draft.
