On Tuesday, a Georgia football staffer was arrested for speeding and reckless driving. Jarvis Jones, a defensive analyst for the Bulldogs, was pulled over by police in Athens, Georgia for going 90 mph in a 55 mph zone.
According to the Athens-Clarke County Police Department, Jones was also charged with reckless driving and failure to maintain lane. He was booked into the Clarke County Jail and released on a $2,000 bond.
The University of Georgia released a statement saying that they are aware of the situation and are gathering more information. They also said that they take these matters seriously and will take appropriate action once they have all the facts.
This is not the first time Jones has been in trouble with the law. In 2018, he was arrested for DUI in Athens. He was suspended from his position at the university for one game as a result of that incident.
Speeding and reckless driving can be very dangerous and put other drivers at risk. It is important to remember to always obey the speed limit and drive safely.
It is unclear what repercussions Jones will face from the university for this incident. It is likely that he will face some form of disciplinary action, but until the university has all the facts, it is impossible to know what that will be.
This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of following the law and driving safely. It is important to remember that driving recklessly can have serious consequences, both legally and personally.
