Chandler Jones arrested for 2nd time in last month

Former Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Chandler Jones was arrested for the second time in a month, police records show, according to David Ferrara of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

The 33-year-old was arrested Tuesday for violating a domestic violence temporary protection order, Ferrara adds.

Jones was arrested on two counts of the same charge on Sept. 29 before being released on bond. He had allegedly taken a woman's belongings from her backyard and burned them, violating the protection order. The Raiders cut him on Sept. 30.

Jones published a series of bizarre posts on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, prior to his first arrest. In one of the posts, he alleged that he was taken to a mental health facility against his will.

In other posts, Jones was critical of the Raiders organization, owner Mark Davis, and head coach Josh McDaniels.

The 6-foot-5 defender signed a three-year, $51-million deal with Las Vegas ahead of the 2022 NFL campaign. He didn't appear in a game for the team in 2023 prior to his release.
