A Champion GONE TOO SOON: Former NFL Star Arthur Jones Dies of 39

 A Champion GONE TOO SOON: Former NFL Star Arthur Jones Dies of 39

 
The NFL community is very sad to lose a great player today, Arthur Jones, a defensive lineman adored for his power on the playing field and his association with a legendary sports family, has died prematurely at the age of 39.

This news, which brought shock and sadness to the entire sports fraternity, was confirmed by the Baltimore Ravens, his ex-team, on Friday. For those who recall the force he exerted on the defensive line, it is a very hard day.

Definitely keeping the cause of death a secret, the family is requesting their privacy during this difficult moment.

Arthur is a talent with a lot of heart, and his ascent to stardom is his own story. The Ravens picked him in the 2010 NFL Draft, and in no time, he became the backbone of their strong defense. It was in 2013 that he was the mainstay of the Baltimore team’s Super Bowl victory, going into the annals of the city’s sports history forever. He later played for the Indianapolis Colts and the Washington Commanders, thereby nurturing his career and reputation with each successive move.

Moreover, Arthur was the eldest of the phenomenal Jones brothers, and was the very proud eldest brother of the UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones and the four-time Pro Bowl champion Chandler Jones. These three siblings were the epitome of greatness; however, Arthur was the one that set the standard.

Now, fans and former teammates are not only thinking about the player but also the person he was. They are writing tributes to him, acknowledging his life and career that came to an end much too early. He was a champion, a brother, and a member of the NFL family who was greatly respected and who will not be forgotten.
