Chargers cornerback J.C. Jackson was booked in jail for what’s being described as a “non-violent family issue,” according to Boston 25 News.
Jackson was taken into custody at the Bristol County Jail & House of Correction on Monday afternoon.
It is unknown if Jackson is being held on bail at this time.
The Chargers released a statement on the situation.
“We are aware of media reports this afternoon pertaining to J.C. Jackson. We will continue to gather information on this matter and will refrain from further comment at this time.”
Signed this past offseason on a five-year, $82.5 million deal, Jackson’s season ended after suffering a ruptured patellar tendon back on Oct. 24 against the Seahawks.
Jackson finished his shortened season with 15 tackles and two passes defended in five games.
