"That is what teams can't believe I can do," Jones said yesterday in Saline, Mich., after doing a shuttle run in 4.3 seconds.

Soon, NFL teams will get a chance to witness what seems like a remarkable comeback from ACL surgery. Jones, a product of Cardinal O'Hara High, has a workout scheduled for scouts on June 28 in Saline.

In a town about 40 miles west of Detroit, the former Lions running back has been rehabbing his surgically repaired knee.

"I've never worked out like this and I feel great," Jones said.

Dr. James Andrews performed the surgery on Jones' right knee in January and told him it would take up to 10 months to get back on the field.

Jones, 25, believes he will be able to go through non-contact drills with the team that signs him during training camp next month.

"I honestly feel like I'm ready to play right now," he insisted.

The Lions cut their former first-round pick in March with 1 year left on his contract after he hurt his knee late last season.
