« I don’t know, I just like suits, » Jones said with a laugh. « Like I said last week, I wear suits because I’m going to work. So, that’s kind of how I look at it. And yeah, they’re cool. »
Jones has certainly shown up for work this season.
The 2021 first-round pick is thriving in the 49ers offense. With his third team in just three years, Jones remains undefeated as the Niners’ signal-caller in place of an injured Brock Purdy. On Thursday night, he threw for 342 yards and two touchdowns and led the team to victory despite playing with an obvious left knee injury.
