Shitty people IMO
Or something happened when they were young a catalyst to their implosion??!!
The Jones' brothers grew up pretty poor and maybe not underprivileged, but they were religiously sheltered.
So once they got all their freedom, cash and opportunity to party, they took it wholeheartedly.
Sounds like their parents were pretty protective.
Jon Jones got stripped of his belt and definitely squandered opportunities, but Chandler has never cost himself anything. Yes he did drugs or whatever, but it hasn't effected his play or cost him yet.

"Young person gets obscenely rich and abuses drugs" is a story as old as drugs.

Chandler is barely 26 years old and one of the very top players at his position. Of course he should set an example, but people make mistakes.
Chandler Jones made 8 million dollars already on his first contract with Patriots.
In 2016 Chandler will make 7.8 million guaranteed on the final year of his 1st deal and after that he is expected to command 15 million per year. His value hasn't seen a hit at all, because of that one incident. Chandler hasn't been in nearly as much trouble as Jon.
Searchinghappy - Shitty people IMO.

He smoked synthetic marijuana, which is legal, and got so paranoid he went to get help. He played the following weekend and didn't get in any trouble. Doesn't compare at all to the mess Jones got himself in. You're also really late on this story.
Who knows, they did have a sister who really looked after them. And she died at a young age, I think 17. From Cancer. Never ever really see them ever talk about her, one of the only time's Ive seen Jones mention her on video was on one of those old countdowns, he can barely get the words out.
She's mentioned in this write up from 2012:
They don't talk much about Carmen, the sister who helped raise them. Carmen was the oldest and everyone says the most responsible. She meted out the discipline. She kept order in the house. She made her brothers do their homework. But she was also the nurturing one. When something bled, Carmen fixed it. When they were scared or cold or tired, Carmen held them.
Then she got sick. Cancer, the doctors said. It was in her brain.
She died just before her 18th birthday, leaving a hole that each Jones boy fills his own way. Camille notices that Jon weeps when he is asked to discuss his sister. Arthur III gets choked up and searches hard for words. Chandler, the littlest, the one who Carmen doted on the most, says nothing. It's been more than a decade and yet the pain is still too deep.

Here is the video I talking about at 8:30 they speak about her, Jon couldn't finish what he wanted to say.

Other than that, have never seen him talk about her.
Arthur Jones overcame injury, death of sister on path to NFL
The Jones family has produced two other elite athletes: MMA champ Jon and draft-eligible Chandler
Chandler said that the NFL's Draft Advisory Board has projected him to be a third-round pick.
Difficult days
Jon and Chandler had always looked up to their oldest brother for guidance and inspiration. But the Jones boys learned to rely on each other when their older sister, Carmen, was diagnosed with brain cancer and quickly grew seriously ill. She died at age 17 when Arthur was in eighth grade.
"She was an angel. You ask God, 'Why?' But I guess God had a better plan for her," Arthur said.
An adolescent, Arthur didn't really understand what cancer was. He figured Carmen would get better, just like that. She had to. He struggled to come to grips with her fading health as her motor skills declined and she was unable to do the things she loved, like playing the piano. But he got some comfort knowing they had grown closer than ever.
With his father, Arthur Jones Jr., who is a pastor in Binghamton, N.Y., and his mother, who used to work with the mentally handicapped before complications from diabetes caused her kidneys to fail, tending to Carmen during her two-year battle with cancer, the brothers survived the difficult and confusing time together. There were left at times to fend for themselves until Carmen was released from the hospital and spent the rest of her life in their home.
"We had to raise each other and look out for each other and cook for each other," Jon said. "Me, Arthur and Chandler, we had to keep each other strong. We really fed off each other's energy."
"It brought us all closer. It made that puzzle that much tighter," added Arthur.
Growing up, the brothers were nearly inseparable — that's what happens when you cram three boys into one bedroom — but being a year apart in age, Arthur and Jon were particularly tight. They went to the same schools. They ate lunch together every day. They had the same friends. The three brothers even made their own code language that they would prefer stays top-secret.
"We can talk about someone in the room with us," Jon said. "They have no clue we're talking about them and we're speaking perfectly clear English. But we can't really share it with anyone else."
They would stay up late playing the "NFL Blitz" video game with the sound off so their parents would think they were sleeping. And Jon desperately wanted to beat his big bro at anything.
"I was always the one who tried to make a competition out of things because Arthur was good at everything," Jon said. "Arthur is an awesome older brother to have. He's everything, man. … No matter what's going on in my life, I'll always have Arthur there as my right-hand man."
Still together, still fighting
As Jon, whose nickname in mixed martial arts is "Bones," trained for his first title UFC defense — it would be against Quinton "Rampage" Jackson — this summer in Albuquerque, Arthur was at his side.
To get in better shape for the 2011 season, Arthur, a two-time New York state wrestling champ in high school, participated in boxing and MMA workouts, sprinted up sand dunes with Jon and swam in the pool at night. If the NFL lockout had stretched into August, Arthur was prepared to schedule his first pro MMA bout. He is still interested in getting into the Octagon in the future.
"I have no doubt in my mind that Arthur could be a top heavyweight in the UFC if he dedicated two years to mixed martial arts," Jon insists. "He could hang with the top guys in the sport."
Thanks to the workouts with Jon, Arthur showed up to training camp in much better shape than his rookie year (though he admits it has been hard to keep his weight down during the winter).
"He's done a tremendous job," Ravens defensive coordinator Chuck Pagano said two weeks ago before throwing a jab at Arthur. "Obviously, he doesn't look as good as his two brothers look."
The Ravens like Arthur's versatility, as he can play both defensive tackle and end. Because of his wrestling background — his father and both of his brothers wrestled in high school, too — he plays with good leverage. They also believe he has surprising quickness for a man of his size, though the 6-foot-3, 313-pound Endicott, N.Y. native is still looking to record his first NFL sack.
"It's hard to find good, solid defensive linemen," Ravens defensive line coach Clarence Brooks said. "And when you've got those guys in the program, you keep them, you nourish them, you make them better, and they end up playing more down the line and doing good things."
Added Ravens defensive tackle Haloti Ngata, who believes Arthur will eventually be a starter in the NFL, whether it is here or elsewhere: "He's dangerous. He may be all smiles and goofy and all that, but his brother is a UFC champion and he knows that Arthur can throw down."

They were NOT poor. Middle class at worst.
