Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Zay Jones was arrested on a misdemeanor domestic battery charge on Monday, November 13, 2023. According to Jacksonville Sheriff's Office arrest records, Jones was booked into the Duval County Jail at 6:05 p.m. on Monday. He is scheduled to make his first court appearance on Tuesday, November 14, 2023 at 9:00 a.m.
The Jaguars released a statement on Monday evening saying that they are aware of the arrest and are gathering more information. The team said that it will not comment further until it has had a chance to review the details of the case.
Jones, 27, is in his second season with the Jaguars. He has 82 receptions for 823 yards and five touchdowns in 12 games this season. He missed two games earlier this season with a knee injury.
The arrest is the latest in a string of domestic violence incidents involving NFL players. In 2020, there were 10 arrests of NFL players on domestic violence charges, according to a report by the NFL Players Association. The report also found that domestic violence arrests among NFL players are more common than arrests for any other crime.
The arrest of Jones comes as the NFL is under increasing scrutiny for its handling of domestic violence cases. In recent years, the league has been criticized for its lenient punishments of players who have been accused of domestic violence.
The NFL has said that it is committed to addressing domestic violence, and has implemented a number of policies in recent years to do so. However, critics say that the league needs to do more to prevent domestic violence and to hold players accountable for their actions.
The arrest of Jones is a reminder that domestic violence is a serious issue that affects people of all walks of life. It is important to remember that domestic violence is never the victim's fault, and that there is help available for victims and their families.
