According to MSNBC, and the Twitter page of NFL.com writer Jason LaCanfora, former Arkansas Razorback quarterback Matt Jones was offered a tryout by the Washington Redskins. He instead opted for retirement. Scott Faldon of the Southwest Arkansas Times Record wrote via Twitter that Jones was "considering heading to Europe to play basketball, which was always his favorite sport."

It was a tryout, not an offer to sign. He gave up cause he realized he's never make another NFL roster.
ok .................... well, you seem to have a personal relationship with jones to know what he's thinking in his head so i guess you're right. btw, how is jones doing with his coke habit?
Naw, I don't like that crackhead...hated him when he was at Arkansas. I'm just saying if he's headed to Europe to play basketball, something must have clicked in his head that his football days are past him.
