Jon Jones’ Brother Suspended by NFL For PED Policy Violation

July 22, 2016 | Posted by Jeremy Thomas

Jon Jones isn’t the only member of his family who got in trouble for PEDs this month. NFL.com reports that Arthuer Jones, Jon’s older brother, has been suspended for four games for violating the league’s PED policy. Jones is a defensive end for the Indianapolis Colts. The substance for which he tested positive isn’t known.

The suspension comes after Jones failed a drug test and had to be pulled off the UFC 200 card with just three days to go. He was set to face Daniel Cormier. Jones has denied knowingly taking any banned substances, despite both his “A” and “B” samples testing positive for an estrogen blocker. He is temporarily suspended pending proceedings with USADA and the NSAC.
