New details have emerged regarding the troubling incident involving Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Chandler Jones. Jones, who has been absent from the team for several weeks, was arrested on Friday morning. The incident appears to be the culmination of Jones' recent disturbing behavior, which has included making accusations against the team and its personnel on social media.

According to reports, Las Vegas police arrested Jones for allegedly stealing items from his ex-girlfriend's house and burning them in her backyard. The woman had filed a temporary restraining order against Jones just a day prior. It is said that Jones had been messaging her on Snapchat and had visited her house multiple times, in clear violation of the order. Security cameras at the woman's residence captured him in the act, and he even sent her videos of himself burning her belongings.

Initially, ESPN reported that Jones' arrest was for violating a domestic violence restraining order. However, it is now evident that his actions were more extensive and disturbing than initially reported.

Jones' behavior has raised serious concerns about his mental well-being, as he has also made bizarre claims on social media, including denying that former NFL player Aaron Hernandez committed suicide in prison. In a live stream, Jones broke down in tears, further adding to the confusion surrounding his mental state. He even alleged that he had been hospitalized against his will earlier in the week.

He's in his second year with the Raiders

Jones, a four-time Pro Bowler, is currently in the second season of a lucrative three-year contract with the Raiders. However, it appears highly unlikely that he will play for the team again, and his NFL career as a whole may be in jeopardy.

It is worth noting that Jones comes from a troubled family background. His older brother, Jon Jones, is a well-known UFC fighter who has also faced numerous personal and legal issues. Jon has struggled with drug and alcohol abuse and has been involved in physical altercations, including assaulting his fiancé in Las Vegas last year.

The Raiders have released a statement regarding Chandler Jones' arrest, expressing their concern for his well-being and hoping that he receives the necessary care. The team is undoubtedly facing a challenging situation as they navigate how to address this incident and its impact on their roster.
