NFL star Chandler Jones of the Las Vegas Raiders has claimed he was taken to a psychiatric hospital against his will by the Las Vegas Fire Department last week.
In an alarming social media post on Monday night, Jones said he was injected against his will and forced to sleep on the floor. It comes a week after Jones went on a disturbing tirade in which he accused Raiders owner Mark Davis of protecting the identity of a man he alleges abused his goddaughter. Jones later said that he had been hacked.
In a post on .
“I was injected with something, I don’t know what.” They say it was a court hearing and the Las Vegas police put me on it. I hadn’t done anything wrong. Police said people were worried about me because of my online posts.
“I opened my front door and a group of five to seven people were there to take me into an ambulance where I was later given an injection and I asked them not to do that. “I had no cell phone or communication . I was taken to Southern Hills Hospital and then transferred to Seven Hills where they tried to force me to take medication and injections.
“I called the Raiders GM 6-7 times asking for help and wondering if he brought me here, but he never answered. “I even left him voicemails. I was just trying to figure out why I’m still not allowed in the building and why I continue to watch my brothers suffer every Sunday. But no answer.
“This place is NOT a place for elite athletes.” My first night I slept on the floor and was not offered a bed.
“My brothers had to bring me decent meals and clothing.” My father comes and reads me Bible verses. Every day I miss costs a million dollars. I’m still confused about what I did wrong. I am still here. I am very sensible.
“I train in my room every day. Even down the hall at 3am if you ask the staff here.
“All I know is that whoever brought me here had bad intentions. I’m too strong a person to be spiritually broken. For all my friends who know me: YOU KNOW!!!’.
The Raiders placed Jones on the non-football illness list last week, ruling him out of the team indefinitely.
“It’s a personal situation and a private matter,” Raiders head coach Josh McDaniels said at the time. “We’ve dealt with it and I’m not going to talk about it.”
The Las Vegas Raiders have been contacted for comment in light of Jones’ new post.
