Jones comments on younger brother: Chandler's trying to make things right

The former UFC light heavyweight champion assures fans that his younger brother, Chandler Jones, is in a "good position" following his recent trouble with synthetic marijuana.

Earlier in January, it was reported that Jon Jones' younger brother Chandler Jones -- a defensive end of the NFL's New England Patriots -- was hospitalized after taking a form of synthetic marijuana.

The 25-year-old is reported to have dropped to his knees after arriving at the Foxborough PD station in a disorientated state but appears to have recovered to full health.

"Bones", who had recently detailed his addiction to marijuana in an interview with Ariel Helwani, told TMZ earlier today that Chandler is in a good place mentally and is striving "to make things right".
