One of the big story lines to follow this offseason is the future of Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones. New general manager Terry Fontenot has gone on record stating that if the team received any calls on Jones that the franchise would be prompted to listen.
Jones, who is the Falcons’ all-time leading receiver, still has a lot to give the game at the age of 32. When healthy he still among the best receivers in all of football which means there will be numerous suitors for the former Alabama great.
On Thursday, Bleacher Report Gridiron shared a post on Twitter asking the fans where they believe Jones will make the biggest impact following a report from The Athletic’s Dave Schultz saying that Ravens, 49ers, Patriots, Colts, Chargers and Titans could all be in the market for him.
Shortly following the post, Titans running back Derrick Henry made it clear that he wants Jones tearing secondaries up in Tennessee.

Pairing Jones with Henry would create one of the most balanced attacks in the entire league. In 2020 Henry was the league leader in rushing yards (2,027) rushing touchdowns (17) and rushing yards per game (126.7).
Not to mention the Titans saw the emergence of young wide receiver A.J. Brown who went for over 1,00 yards receiving while scoring 11 touchdowns.
Quarterback Ryan Tannehill should be pounding on general manager Jon Robinson’s door to try and create one of the most loaded offenses in the league.
