Foxboro cops: Pats' Chandler Jones sought medical help early Sunday

Obviously some **** is going on here, but to cut to the chase, will Jones play Saturday?

I am going to say it sounds like he had an Ambien or similar psychotic event.
Like I said earlier he was probably having trouble sleeping due to pain medication withdrawal.

I was leaning towards Ambien as well. (the the class D delta thing sounds more serious)

I took it for a little bit a few years back and if I got out of bed 30 minutes after taking it I could not hold a coherent conversation. Nor would I remember it.

One time I actually took 2 by accident. Got used to taking them every night. Took one, went and did something came back right before I layed down and took another forgetting I took the first. Only reason I figured it out was because I was sick as all get out the next day which was really the only reason I figured out what happened.

I would also sleep walk a lot with it (really sleep eat).

Glad to not be taking that junk anymore.

It looks like its just weed. Which begs the question, how did he have a psychotic freakout from just weed? Must have been some really bad stuff.

Might have been laced. Pretty dumb to not know the source....

there's lots of synthetic weed pills that mess you up due to tons of side effects, besides mimicking THC.

Yes and those pills cheat the drug test .........

I hope this doesn't develop into the dreaded playoff "distraction" we've all been hoping could be avoided this year.

If things are as bad as they look he might not ever suit up as a Patriot again. Weed is a 4 game suspension for a first offense right? I know thats for failing a drug test but there are probably also punishments for this sort of thing. If that's the case Jones misses the playoffs. Since next season is the last year on his contract who knows what Bill decides to do with him.

You know, I step away for FIVE MINUTES. Can't you people look after things when I'm gone?

If he was in trouble, I can't imagine he'd been at practice.

Does anyone know if he drove himself to the FPD? IF so how does one who has OD'ed drive himself anywhere?

Iam just wondering what is the league reaction to this? Tests, put in drug program ,fines or do they make him miss this game?

His house is apparently just a block away from the department so it is within reason that he could have driven himself even while completely wasted.

I think he is fine. Even if was something, he has not been accused by the police and not been tested by the NFL. So he got sick, that is all the NFL has on him.

Bill isn't figuring this out now and he's been practicing.

Interception said:

Lol if you have that serious pain medication withdrawal, you were abusing them already anyway.
You're trying too hard to find anything you can to make this look better than it is. Sucks, hope this doesn't hurt his career in anyway. Went to Syracuse while he was playing there.

?

Why quoting me? All I said it doesn't sound like cocaine OD never said about anything else or trying to find anything to make it better than it is.

Maybe he hoped that this could be kept under wraps. Can you imagine all the **** he KNEW for a fact that LT was getting into back in the day that never got out? But the internet and social media make those things impossible to hide now.

And the officer that went in to lock up the residence stated he found the keys on the table.

(assuming Jones is like the rest of us and keeps his house key and his car key together)

If that's the case, he's in more trouble with Bill over that than the actual incident.

So, Merloni is posting Gronk is involved?

WTF
