  08/05/21 - OT Caleb JonesrSr/2022, Indiana

  Jones found himself on the periphery of NFL draft discussions in the offseason between 2019 and 2020, and why not? A mammoth strong-side tackle, he anchored the line that helped IU to the Gator Bowl, and at 6-8 he has the sort of frame and reach that make linemen at that spot so in demand at the next level. But last fall was not so successful. Jones, like many of his teammates along Indiana's offensive line, struggled for consistency. The Hoosiers' front five excelled at times but also struggled badly in key moments.

In hindsight, it shouldn't have been terribly surprising. Numerous linemen, on both sides of the ball and both at IU and elsewhere, have said this offseason that COVID restrictions on things like facility access and coach contact made it difficult to maintain a healthy playing weight. Jones himself said last spring that he played 40-50 pounds above his ideal. Jones has lost that weight now. And restrictions on things as basic as being able to practice all offseason together as one offensive line unit - something Indiana literally could not do for most of 2020 - have been lifted. If that line is to improve substantially in 2021, Jones figures to be a big piece of the equation. - Indianapolis Star/News
