On Thanksgiving, , he suffered a knee injury against the Dallas Cowboys, which would end his career.
Despite an attempt to return in , he finally retired in April, Born in Aliceville the tiny town in Pickens County just 35 miles west of Tuscaloosa, Jones, now 44, played college football at Florida State for only one season before being the first round draft choice by the Seahawks. That's what I want to do. It was tough coming up with ideas, but I think at that time, I was done playing so I had the opportunity to kind of come up. I thought of the name "Best to Ever Do It" and then came out with my brand.
Year three of it now, still learning. It's a great chance for me to see if it grows. I think just like playing ball, you start out young and then you see the growth of it and that's what makes it fun. A: I love watching TV and being able to have quality time with my family. I think a lot of times, people forget that. I tell my kids all of the time when we're just sitting around the house, I say 'these are moments you can't get back.
Whenever we get a chance to just sit around and talk, that's what I enjoy the most. A: I think, for me personally, I did everything I needed to do while I was playing. I'm more of a homer. I was never searching for the cameras or attention. For me, it was easy once it was over because I enjoy being at home. That made it easier from that standpoint. Now, it's easy because I'm blessed to be able to do what I want to do.
I'm in control. That's what makes it fun. I'd say that if guys knew what they want to do, and they can do it when they want to, that makes for a fun retirement. Warrior Additional Crew.
