NegativeRoleAug 12, 2026Matt Harmon

Matt Harmon uses Julio Jones as a historical reference point for the traditional 'boundary X receiver' body type and role, contrasting him with modern, more versatile receivers like Puka Nacua and Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Jones represents the older archetype whose role was built around verticality and drawing defensive attention to open the middle.

Jones caught a 30-yard touchdown pass from Brady late in the third quarter of the Cowboys' dominant 31-14 playoff victory.

Julio Jones delivered one of his all-time greatest performances in the NFC Championship, catching nine passes for 180 yards and two touchdowns; he set the tone early with two straight catches of 17+ yards, made tough catches across the middle, and converted another third-and-long with a 19-yard gain crossing under Sanu and Gabriel; Jones dominated LaDarius Gunter throughout the game, leaving the Packers' secondary searching for answers; in the second half, he made an iconic play off play action where he got past Gunter's jam at the line, burst through his tackle attempt, and delivered a vicious stiff arm on Damarious Randall; later made an extraordinary leaping catch where Gunter flipped him over mid-air after going low on the tackle, with Jake Ryan taken out in the process; the Packers couldn't contain him, which played a big part in their inability to slow down Atlanta's relentless offensive machine.
