The Jacksonville Jaguars running back is on the mend from a season-ending Lisfranc fracture in his left foot and told NFL Network, "I'm feeling good."
"I just got back to Jacksonville a couple weeks ago from school, just have been rehabbing every day and getting used to the offseason program," Jones-Drew said in an interview on Thursday's "NFL Total Access."

I only had six weeks of football last year, so it's just going to be exciting to get back and be with my teammates."
Jones-Drew began jogging "lightly" earlier this month and rehabbed the foot while living in a run-of-the-mill freshman dorm room at UCLA, his alma mater, where he returned this offseason to earn his degree in history.
