Why release Jones?

Does anyone have a clue how the Detroit Lions operate?

Running back is one of the team’s weakest positions, so Thursday they release their most talented player at that position. That’s Lion logic.

Yes, Kevin Jones has been injury prone during his career. But what would it have hurt to keep him on the roster to see if he can recover from his current problem?

The move probably has something to do with cap space, but there is other dead weight on the roster that they could have sliced off.

    I’ll make the early prediction that another team picks up Jones for nothing and he makes a Hall of Fame career for them.

    I don’t know about Hall of Fame, but I bet some good team picks him up and he plays a key role for them.
