Star pass rusher Chandler Jones took to X, formerly known as Twitter, claiming that he was brought into a mental health hospital against his own will last week.
On September 19, the four-time Pro Bowler shared an intriguing Instagram story while casually enjoying a bowl of cereal in his underwear, tagging LeBron James, Lamar Jackson, and Kodak Black in his posts.
After his barrage of interesting Instagram story posts, he took to X days later, saying, “First day out but I’m still aligned.” Attached to the tweet were written notes where Jones claimed he had been taken in by the Las Vegas fire department last week against his will. He shared “a group of 5 to 7” showed up at his front door with an ambulance.

Jones’ note also mentioned that he informed them that he hadn’t committed any wrongdoing, stating, “The police mentioned concerns about my online posts.”
He then claims he was transferred to Seven Hills Behavioral Health Hospital with “no cellphone or no communication.”
Chander, who is also the brother of UFC fighter Jon Jones, also alleged, “I was injected with I don’t know what.”
He claims he reached out to Raiders 6 to 7 times while he was inside the facility and never heard back.
Jones is in the second year of his three-year, $51 million contract. He’s not appeared in a game this season and when the organization has asked about his situation, they continue to call it a personal matter.
