00:00Marcus Jones, according to Tom Pellicero and Ian Rappaport,
00:04has gotten the new three-year extension from the Pats.
00:07Good for him. He's been really good.
00:09He's a good slot corner. He's a great returner.
00:11He's an elite return guy, and then he's a good corner.
00:15Receiving depth if you ever need it.
00:16He can play offense. The coaches know that.
00:18They haven't had to use him yet, but he can if you need him to.
00:21The only guy worth a damn from that draft class a couple years ago,
00:25but now he's a good player.
00:26Lock him up. Why not?
00:27It's a good signing, and I don't know what the numbers are,
00:31but he's a player I would want to sign and keep around.
00:33Can't imagine. It's crazy.
00:34I was saying this to you off the air every week,
00:36and now I guess I just need to trust it.
00:38When a ball pops out from a receiver,
00:40or even the broadcast crew has said it a couple of times,
00:42and I'm like, there's no way,
00:43and they show the replay and they're 1,000% ready.
00:45He's in there.
00:46Every week, he's knocking a ball out of a receiver's hands
00:49or pulling a receiver's arm to influence them catching the football.
00:53He's been, I mean, maybe a lead is too strong,
00:56but he's been incredible at that this year
00:58where he might be beat on the play.
01:02The receiver gets two hands on it.
01:04It's like a likely catch,
01:06and he either punches it out or rips the receiver's arm,
01:09and I feel like he does that every week right now,
01:12and so credit to him.
01:13As you said, he is an elite returner.
01:15He's been a high-end slot corner.
01:17That's a good player and a player I would want to keep around.
01:20He's got two picks on the season.
01:22He has that punt return for a touchdown,
01:23and when you have Christian Gonzalez and even Carlton Davis,
01:26who's been more up and down,
01:27I'm sure teams are looking for another place to throw the ball,
01:30and if he's playing as well as he is, okay, that's tough.
01:34That's going to be tough to throw against the Patriots.
01:37It's already year four.
01:38It doesn't really feel like it's year four,
01:40but this is his fourth year in the league.
01:41I'm looking up his games played,
01:42because I would say if there's one issue with him,
01:44it's been health.
01:45He missed games, yeah.
01:46His first year, he was pretty durable,
01:48and then the second year, he barely played at all.
01:50He played two games?
01:51How much of that was injury,
01:53and how much of that was he was just lower on the depth chart?
01:55I don't know.
01:55Last year, he missed a few games,
01:56so I would say if you want...
01:5814, though, not bad.
01:59No, not bad at all,
01:59but I think...
02:00He's a little dude.
02:01Given his frame,
02:02if there's one concern about a contract,
02:04and I can't imagine this is for much money,
02:06but if there's one concern about a contract,
02:08I guess that would be it,
02:09but no, I'd say I'm on board with keeping him around.
02:10He's a good player.
02:11It's probably also why he doesn't play a lot of offense, right?
02:13They're trying to keep the guy on his feet.
02:16He doesn't return kicks.
