What Happened to Jacoby Jones NFL Career?

Jacoby Jones was a star NFL player for many years, but his career came to an abrupt end. What happened to him?

Introduction

Jacoby Jones was a key player on the Baltimore Ravens team that won Super Bowl XLVII, but he never seemed to regain his form after that season. He was released by the Ravens in 2014 and hasn’t been on an NFL roster since. So what happened to Jacoby Jones’ NFL career?

It’s hard to say exactly what happened, but it seems like Jones’ career just fizzled out after that 2013 season. He didn’t have any major injuries that we know of, but he just couldn’t seem to make an impact on the field anymore. Perhaps he was never able to fully recover from that infamous post-Super Bowl party incident where he was injured by a stripper’s heel.

Whatever the reason, it’s sad to see a once-promising career come to an end like this. We hope Jacoby Jones is doing well and we wish him the best in whatever he chooses to do next.
