    Forget about matt Jones as a possible free agent, he was just caught with blow, admitted it:

    FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Matt Jones faces a felony drug charge in his former college town after police say officers found him cutting up cocaine with a credit card Thursday morning.

    The 25-year-old Jones and two other former Arkansas football players were inside a Toyota SUV in Fayetteville just after 12:40 a.m. Thursday when officers approached. Officers saw a card covered in a white powder in Jones' lap as he used a credit card to scrape it, a police report said.

    Jones, 25-year-old Jared Hicks and 26-year-old Benjamin Cook were arrested. Officers say they searched the vehicle and found a plastic bag filled with a white substance that tested positive for cocaine and a jar with possible marijuana residue.

    Officers questioned Jones and he acknowledged the white powder was cocaine, the report said.

    I'd say this news pretty much ends the Matt Jones experiment in Jacksonville. What a complete waste of talent.

    Yeah, especially when he's looking at the possibility of testing the FA market. He'll get released, fined, and suspended. All for doing some blow in a van in a parking lot at 1:00 in the morning. What a dope, for sure.

    If he's that stupid, his loss will be no loss for the Jags.

    Hes an idiot for sure, but Im not so sure they can charge him the with "residue" on the bags and jar, but theyll have charge him for the actual cocaine amount they found.

    Like Tone said, a first round pick on him. Other than that, your right. They have the toughest WR battle according to John Clayton. Jones will be expendable for the sole reason that Troy Williamson is lighting up camp right now with good hands and speed.

    Yeah, he's 25 years old. He still has a chance to somewhat revive his career. He certainly won't live up to his billing.

    Some people say they're not surprised because he is a 'mellow' type of guy.

    Yeah bro.

    DAMN...well, that might explain why he hasnt been as good as his potential...unless he just started which is even worse as if your career is on the rocks you want to WORK HARD to get back on track ...not screw yourself over even more.

    Ugh..what a dumb a**

    That makes no sense. Trust me, doing coke and being mellow are at opposite ends of the spectrum.

    i said this in the club level, but Matt Jones on coke? I'd pay to see that.

    the guy looks/acts like a stoner... so seeing him on coke would have to be amusing. :up:

    To be honest with you, I don't know what a 'mellow' type of person is. I read it from PFT.

    I always assumed he was a pot head. I mean, his demeanor and his appearance lend himself to that. Plus I guess it takes one to know one. But coke? I never would have guessed. Maybe that's why his face was always so red.
