Longhorns WR Cayleb Jones charged with fracturing jaw of UT tennis player

Texas freshman receiver Cayleb Jones has been charged with aggravated assault after fracturing the jaw of a Texas tennis player, Orange Bloods reports.

ESPN reports that threats made by Jones and the assault, which happened outside an Austin night club, resulted from his anger surrounding tennis player Joseph Swaysland’s relationship with Longhorns’ volleyball star Khat Jones, whom Jones used to date.

Coach Mack Brown later said:

"Cayleb Jones has been suspended from all team activities pending the completion of the legal process."

Jones, a top 50 recruit in the Class of 2012, caught just two passes last season.
