Jaguars' Zay Jones arrested on domestic battery charges

Jones was booked into Duval County Jail at 6:03 p.m. He was arrested on charges of domestic battery causing bodily harm.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Jacksonville Jaguars receiver Isaiah "Zay" Jones was arrested on charges of domestic battery with bodily harm.

The 28-year-old was booked into the Duval County Jail at 6:03 p.m. Monday night, arrest records show.

He is expected to make his first appearance in court Tuesday morning.

In a statement to First Coast News, the Jaguars said: "We are aware of the situation and are in the midst of gathering information. We will have no further comment at this time."

Jones had a previous arrest in 2018, when he played for the Buffalo Bills. He was charged with felony damage to property at a Los Angeles apartment building. 

A first-degree misdemeanor in Florida is punishable by up to 180 days in jail and up to a $1,000 fine. 

Jones has missed six of the last seven Jaguars games due to a knee injury. He has eight receptions for 78 yards and two touchdowns this season and 261 catches for 2,785 yards and 59 TDs in a seven-year NFL career spanning Buffalo, Oakland, Las Vegas and Jacksonville.

Jones played college ball at East Carolina and still holds NCAA Division I records for career receptions (399) and single-season receptions (158).
