D’Jimon Jones is no longer on the WSU football team after being dismissed by coach Mike Leach.
“We cut D’Jimon for violating team rules,” Leach said. Characteristically, Leach offered no further explanation.
Although Jones spent his first season redshirting and had yet to see live Pac-12 action, his name came up repeatedly during spring practices, and he was considered a strong candidate replace NFL draft pick Shalom Luani at nickelback, WSU’s hybrid linebacker/safety position.
Jones had a little scrape with the law in June after allegedly peeing in an elevator in a residence hall.
