Jon Jones Says He ‘Absolutely Sucked’ At Football, Unlike NFL Brothers

Jon Jones‘ household is filled with Super Bowl champs, however the UFC super star informs TMZ Sports he had absolutely no possibility of having a profession on the football field — ’cause he stated he “absolutely sucked” at the sport.

Of course, Jones’ older sibling, Arthur, played 8 seasons as a protective take on for the Ravens, Colts, and Commanders … and his more youthful brother, Chandler, presently plays protective end for the Raiders.

With that being stated, football is plainly in the Jones DNA … so when we asked Jon if he might have followed in their steps, Bones made no bones about it — he was ass.

“I absolutely sucked on the football field,” Jones informed us. “I was no great at all. I didn’t play up until my senior year [of high school]. I was constantly on the group, however I never ever got to play.

Jones — who holds a 26-1 record in the UFC — says he simply didn’t get the Xs and Os, protections, or play calling behind the video game … and playing Madden didn’t assist either.

“I sucked at football. I made a hell of a benchwarmer, though,” Jones stated.

But, do not feel bad for the man — Jones wound up turning into one of the best blended martial artists ever … and he’s back in the Octagon on March 4 to deal with 11-1 Ciryl Gane — his very first battle in over 3 years.

“A lot of people wanted to take a warm-up fight,” Jones stated. “I’m going right at one of the best talents the UFC has ever seen.”
