Many are assuming that Julio Jones is perfectly content donning the #8 he wore while he was a member of Alabama.

Needless to say, the Titans just got a whole lot more dangerous with Julio Jones paired with A.J. Brown. Defenses are going to have a lot of problems stopping this star-studded Titans offense.
