Chandler Jones is living a very complicated moment. The defensive star hasn’t played at all this season with the Las Vegas Raiders after many controversial comments published on social media.
During the last few weeks, Jones has criticized different members of the organization such as head coach Josh McDaniels and owner Mark Davis. He also posted a worrying video in which he questioned Aaron Hernandez’s cause of death.
Since September 20, the Las Vegas Raiders made a final decision and put him on the non-football illness list. Now, things just got worse for the former player of the Patriots and Cardinals.
