Football Betting Lines

06/11/2010 - East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Giants have signed safety Chad Jones, their third round selection in the 2010 NFL Draft.

The 6-foot-3, 218-pound Jones played in 40 games over three seasons at LSU, starting 19 times, including all 13 games as a junior in 2009.

He led the team with three interceptions and was fifth on the team with 74 tackles last season. Jones finished his career with 158 stops and five interceptions.

Jones also returned 31 punts, including one for a touchdown, and seven kickoffs during his career.

The Baton Rouge, LA native was a member of the Tigers national championship football team in 2007, as well as being a part of the LSU baseball national title team in 2009.

He joined teammate Jared Mitchell as the only two players in college history to claim a BCS national title and baseball national title.

The Houston Astros selected Jones in the 13th round of the 2007 Major League Draft and he was recently chosen in the 50th round of the 2010 First Year Player Draft by the Milwaukee Brewers.

New York waived kicker Sam Swank to make room for Jones on the 80-man roster.
