Jones discussed Aaron Hernandez, former New England Patriots star who was imprisoned for murder and later committed suicide, suggesting the facts around his death were falsified.

Further, he claimed NFL players are being injected with fluoride and that CTE does not exist. Both claims have no evidence to support them. A recent study found CTE in 40 percent of athletes who died before 30.

Jones, at one point in the video, got emotional and started crying. He also called for significant changes in the Raiders organization, saying head coach Josh McDaniels should be fired.
