My favorite Colts RB ever. He was more than okay, he was an all-around solid RB and great locker room guy, and the prototype for the third-down RB that became so popular in the 80's and 90's. I think he even punted a few times. At least he did in college and had the ability to do it.

Listening to Colts games back in the day, Jones to Carr was exciting to hear, but Jones to McCauley on third down was money.
