Report: Former FSU Star Defensive Back Has Top-30 Visit With Indianapolis Colts
The Florida State Seminoles had 12 players compete at the 2024 NFL Combine, where many saw their draft stock increase ahead of the April 25 NFL Draft. Players like former defensive tackle Braden Fiske and defensive end Jared Verse delivered dominant performances, catching the attention of NFL teams. The 2023 Seminole squad, fresh off a 13-1 ACC Championship season, is clearly making waves in the professional realm.

Defensive back Jarrian Jones was among the former FSU players who stood out at the combine and had a stellar year during his final season in Tallahassee. So, it is no surprise that professional teams are looking at the 6'0'', 190-pound native of Magee, Mississippi.
The Draft Network's NFL Draft Analyst, Ryan Fowler, reported on Tuesday that the Indianapolis Colts have shown interest in Jones during the pre-draft process. This could be a sign that he has elevated himself on their draft board.
Jones recorded 25 tackles, five for a loss, three interceptions, one sack, one forced fumble, and one recovery in 2023. He was the only player that season with a sack, forced fumble, interception, and fumble recovery in a single game last season.
While 2023 was arguably the most productive season for Jones with a 90.1 PFF grade, he finished his career at FSU with 84 tackles, five interceptions, 15 passes defended, and a forced fumble. Jones transferred to FSU after spending one season at Mississippi State.
The Colts currently have the 15th pick in the NFL Draft but Jones will likely be selected in the later rounds.
