Jayden Jones Talks Syracuse Offer, Visit

The Orange offered the 2026 recruit recently.

Syracuse football hosted several players this past weekend for the game against Western Michigan. Included in that group was class of 2026 Millville (NJ) High edge Jayden Jones. Jones was also offered on the trip. The Orange joined schools like Michigan, Penn State, Pittsburgh, Rutgers and West Virginia that have already extended a scholarship opportunity. 

"We where hanging in the locker room and coach Dennis Thomas just came up to me and offered me. I was definitely very happy."

While it may be early in his recruiting process, Jones says he is interested in Syracuse and wants to learn more about the program. 

"I'm interested in going back up there and getting to know the coaches more," Jones said. "I definitely felt welcome and I loved the atmosphere." 

The atmosphere was the JMA Wireless Dome game day environment when Syracuse blew out Western Michigan 48-7. The 6-2, 210 pounder was impressed by the noise level and fan support. 

"It was just crazy loud especially because of the dome," Jones said. "Just great to be around over all." 

While Jones does not currently have anything scheduled, he wants to come back sometime this season for another game. Whether or not he is able to will depend on his schedule with high school football and other visits.
