After death of son, Dwight Jones completes painful journey back to NFL
Posted Dec 19, 2013
Once the workout, before Jets’ executives and coaches in the club’s practice facility, had concluded, Dwight Jones said he walked into a bathroom, dropped to his knees and thanked God. By lunchtime Wednesday, the wide receiver had been signed to the practice squad and was suited up in a Jets helmet and white uniform bearing a No. 14 and his last name across the back in green stitching.
