Velus Jones barely plays for the Seahawks, but that isn't stopping him from picking a social media fight with Bears fans.
Drafted as a receiver/running back/kick returner in the third round in 2022, Jones had as many fumbles as starts and touchdowns combined. After a fumbled kickoff in the 2024 opener he was benched and three weeks later released.
.Since then he has played with four teams - Panthers, Jaguars, Saints and Seahawks - but has been on the the field for only a combined 12 snaps. Now a member of Super Bowl-bound Seattle, however, Jones is yapping on social media as though he is leading the Seahawks to a title. After both Chicago's Divisional Round loss to the Rams and last Sunday's NFC Championship Game, Jones post a laughing face emoji as if to say "I'm getting the last laugh on those who doubted me." It's the responses, however, that have provided the real comedy.For the Seahawks this season Jones played in three games. In the blowout win over the 49ers in the Divisional Round, he carried six times for 10 yards in garbage time. He was inactive for the NFC Championship Game, a little detail Bears fans reminded him of time and time again in response to his post.With the Seahawks favored over the Patriots in Super LX, Jones may very well wind up with a ring. It will be interesting to see how he responds on social media, and how the Bears fans bite back.Jones' post prompted more than 800 comments. Pretty impressive for a guy who didn't even suit up for the Seahawks' last game.The Ozzy Trapilo injury news is even worse than we thoughtRichie Whitt has been a sports media fixture in Dallas-Fort Worth since graduating from UT-Arlington in 1986.

Whitt has been covering the NFL since 1989, and in 1993 authored The 'Boys Are Back, a book chronicling the Dallas Cowboys' run to Super Bowl XXVII.The Bears' season may be over, but their future appears bright
