Titans’ Jamarco Jones gets kicked out of practice again

The frontrunner for the Titans’ right tackle job, Jamarco Jones, got himself kicked out of practice once again on Thursday.

UPDATE: The Titans have apparently had enough of Jamarco Jones, as he’s since been released.

Tennessee Titans offensive lineman Jamarco Jones is having a rough week of practice at training camp, as the right tackle candidate has been booted from two straight sessions.

During Tuesday’s practice, Jones got into it with defensive lineman Jeffery Simmons, which led to both players being kicked out of the session. Jones did not immediately calm down after it was broken up, either, but he did return later.

Then, on Thursday, Jones laid what was a dirty block on linebacker Chance Campbell during team period, something fellow linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair rightly didn’t take kindly to, which led to another confrontation.

After that, Jones wasn’t spotted at practice the rest of the day, per Kuharsky.

After practice was over, Al-Shaair was asked about the scuffle but pretty much just brushed it off, likening it to getting into fights with siblings.

Jones has been no stranger to getting into dust-ups with teammates since joining the Titans, even dating back to last year. You may or may not remember his beef with former left tackle Taylor Lewan.

While I’m not against players showing some fire like he did with Simmons on Tuesday, it’s clear that Jones, who is the frontrunner for the right tackle job, needs to calm down a bit. And, it’s even less acceptable to be hitting a teammate with a dirty block like he did on Thursday.
