Taiwan Jones open to position switch
Taiwan Jones - RB - Oakland Raiders
Dec. 7, 2012 - 6:30 PM ET

Raiders RB Taiwan Jones says he'd be open to switching back to his college position of cornerback.

Jones played both positions in college. "I've thought about it a lot," Jones said Friday. Jones is buried at No. 4 on the Raiders' running back depth chart, but has excelled as a gunner on special teams. Although the lightning-quick Jones believes he could hold his own at corner, the odds of a potential switch being successful are low. Of course, Jones' future at corner doesn't appear any more dismal than his future at running back. The 2011 fourth-round pick has just 22 carries in 21 career games.
