Jacoby Jones - WR - Baltimore Ravens
Jan. 31, 2013 - 10:10 AM ET
Jacoby Jones revealed that he was "set" to sign with the Panthers as a free agent last offseason before the Ravens lured him away.
Jones ended up signing a two-year, $7 million deal in Baltimore, citing the "family feel" in the locker room as the deciding factor. He also didn't see himself getting a shot at the No. 2 wideout role in Carolina. "They were kind of decided on Brandon LaFell," Jones said. The Ravens' All-Pro return man has chipped in on offense during this playoff run with four catches -- including the game-tying 70-yard bomb during the comeback Divisional Round win in Denver.
