The Raiders’ Chandler Jones blasts his own team in shocking, now-deleted Instagram posts – as the $51m star claims he ‘doesn’t want to play’, lashes out at the coach and says he’s locked out of the building been

Las Vegas Raiders defensive endman Chandler Jones hinted in shocking and now-deleted social media posts Tuesday that he no longer wants to play for coach Josh McDaniels and general manager Dave Ziegler on social media.

Jones’ agent Ethan Lock said he had no comment. DailyMail.com has reached out to the Las Vegas Raiders for comment.

The Raiders return to practice Wednesday in preparation for Sunday’s season opener in Denver.

“It’s a shame that I’m a top athlete with 112 sacks in the NFL and have to go to a local gym to work out during the season for no apparent reason. This is wild for me, Josh, and you know you have to do what is.” “Right,” Jones posted on Instagram, along with another post claiming he was also no longer able to access the facilities of the team.

It was unclear what time frame Jones was referring to. He recently missed a few training sessions due to an unspecified injury but then returned last week.

Separately, he revealed that he didn’t “want to play for the Raiders” when McDaniels and Ziegler were still in control.

He said he would prefer defensive coordinator Patrick Graham to take over the coaching position.

Those posts had a very different tone to what Jones wrote on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday, saying he can’t wait to play this year! Feel great in practice!’

This isn’t the first time this year that a star Raiders player has expressed dissatisfaction with the Raiders’ management.

Jones is a four-time Pro Bowler who won a Super Bowl with the New England Patriots in 2015

Wide receiver Davante Adams narrated The alarm clock in April that he and management “disagree on what we think is best for us right now.”

However, Adams said in a press conference in May that he fully agrees with the Raiders.

“Ultimately, I’m a raider and I’m happy to be here,” Adams said at the time.

“I love my head coach, I love the general manager here and everyone from top to bottom.”
