Kanyatta Jones was once livin' pretty large as an offensive lineman for the Washington Redskins and, later, the New England Patriots. He even won a coveted Super Bowl ring, the ultimate prize for any professional football player. When a kneecap injury felled him in 2002, however, not only did it put his athletic career on hold, but it seems to have spawned the beginnings of some very odd behavior.
While benched, in order to recover from his injuries, Jones got in major trouble when he decided to "play a prank"- or so he claims- by boiling a pot of hot water and pouring it on his roommate, who happened to be sitting on the potty at the time. The roommate was not amused, especially since Jones's silly shenanigans resulted in severe burns. Jones was arrested, charged, went to court and got probation. Apparently, the Patriots weren't willing to put any further hopes on him either, because they dumped him soon after the incident.
Just when it seemed like the 29-year-old former NFL star was turning his life around by playing for the Tampa Bay Storm, an Arena Football team, he once more suffered a momentary loss of common sense.
Seems that Mr. Jones tried to pee in the middle of a Florida nightclub dance floor. Cops were called and Jones was put under arrest for "obstruction and trespassing"and "battery on a law enforcement officer."
