WATCH: Tom Brady, Julio Jones Connect on 48-Yard Bomb Downfield

Buccaneers wide receiver Julio Jones is cementing himself in the offense.

Julio Jones is giving us glimpses of old Julio in his first game as a Tampa Bay Buccaneer.

So far the veteran wide receiver has caught 3 of his 4 targets for a total of 69 yards in the first half; highlighted by a 48-yard bomb from Tom Brady to put the Bucs in scoring position right before the half.

The Buccaneers are loaded at the wide receiver position and they might need that depth the rest of the game as both Chris Godwin and Mike Evans were missing on that last drive.

If Julio can maintain this level of play and continue making plays he will be a terror moving forward. Russell Gage has yet to make an impact so it appears that Jones has solidified himself as the team's #3 wideout.
