It will be a quiet end to Jordan Jones’ Kentucky career.
The oft-discussed — sometimes for reasons the senior and his coaches would not prefer — linebacker will not play in the Citrus Bowl, a UK spokesman confirmed Tuesday. The only reason given was Jones was declared ineligible.
The news initially was reported on Kentucky Sports Radio.
The senior from Youngstown, Ohio, has played in 42 career games with 33 starts and has 251 career tackles, including 28.5 for loss and 7.5 quarterback sacks and 14 hurries. He led the team in tackles his sophomore season with 109, including 15.
