Ed Jones Height

Ed Jones Height, Height: 6 ft 9 in (2.06 m) Weight: 271 lb (123 kg) Ed Lee “Too Tall” Jones (born February 23, 1951 in Jackson, Tennessee) is a retired American football player in the NFL who played 15 years for the Dallas Cowboys. He played from 1974-1978 and 1980-1989. In 1979, he attempted a career in professional boxing.

Jones attended Jackson Central-Merry High School where he played baseball and basketball. He only played three football games, because his high school didn’t support the sport until his senior year.

His basketball skills earned him All-America honors and scholarship offers from several Division I (NCAA) programs. He also had offers from Major League Baseball teams to play first base in their minor league systems.

As a senior he fought a Golden Gloves boxing match, recording a knockout of his opponent in less than a minute. He stopped shortly after that, when his basketball coach read an article about the fight, and made him choose between basketball and boxing.
