Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Zay Jones was arrested on Monday and is facing a misdemeanor domestic battery charge, according to reports from ESPN. The 28-year-old player's first court appearance has been scheduled for Tuesday at 9 a.m.

Following the news of Jones' arrest, the Jaguars released a statement to ESPN, stating that they are aware of the situation and are currently gathering information. The team refrained from providing any further comment at this time.

Jones was taken into custody by the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office and booked into the Duval County Jail at 6:03 p.m. ET on Monday. The charges against him include domestic battery causing bodily harm, a first-degree misdemeanor.

This season, Jones has only appeared in three games for the Jaguars. He has been sidelined for six games, including the last four, due to a right knee injury. During his limited time on the field, he has recorded five catches, amassing a total of 55 yards and scoring a touchdown.

This marks Jones' second season with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Prior to joining the Jaguars, he had stints with the Buffalo Bills and the Las Vegas Raiders.

As the case unfolds, further updates are expected following Jones' court appearance on Tuesday. The outcome of the legal proceedings may have implications for the player's future in the NFL.
