Reshad Jones — a former Pro Bowl safety for the Miami Dolphins — was arrested in Florida on Wednesday after cops say he was illegally carrying a loaded firearm.
According to a police report, obtained by WPLG Local 10, cops made contact with Jones at around 4 a.m. after witnesses say the NFL free agent was walking around Davie, Fla. gas stations carrying a gun.
In the report, officers say when they began questioning the 32-year-old former Miami defensive back … they noticed the firearm sticking out of his pants.
Cops say Jones told them he did NOT have a concealed weapons permit … and initially complied with their arrest orders for him to get on the ground.
Officers in the report, though, noted Jones later became combative … and “appeared to be on the influence of an unknown substance.”
Cops in the report also say Jones reeked of booze.
Jones was eventually arrested and booked. Jail records show he’s since been released.
Jones had a great career for the Dolphins after being picked by the team in the 5th round of the 2010 NFL Draft. He played in Miami for 10 seasons, starting 113 games and recording 21 interceptions.
Jones was released by the ‘Fins after the ’19 season … and he’s yet to latch on with another team.
