Matt Jones was just holding it for a friend.
According to police, Jacksonville Jaguars WR Matt Jones "...was inside a car cutting up cocaine with a credit card." The same Matt Jones that was drafted in the first-round by the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2005 because of his potential (6'6" frame and freakish athletic ability) was the same Matt Jones that lacked motivation. The one that frustrated Jack Del Rio with his "...demeanor and work ethic, making him inactive for three games."
Matt's father, Steve Jones, issued this ridiculous statement:
“We want to make it clear that Matt was not in possession of any drugs, but that there were drugs in the vehicle and were located in the closest proximity to Matt," Jones added. "He does not claim any responsibility for the drugs.”
What a shock that he doesn't claim any "responsbility". Usually cokeheads are pillars of accountability. This is the type of excuse a kid uses at 14 when his parents catch him with pornography or alcohol or a condom. Parents NEVER buy that excuse. Apparently, Steve Jones is the exception to that rule.
