Jags Players Detained After Brawling with Bouncers at London Nightclub

Four members of the Jacksonville Jaguars were detained in London Friday night, after a brawl with bouncers at a nightclub.

The Jaguars released a statement after the incident:

According to the Big Lead, “Reportedly, the brawl stemmed from the players being accused of trying to leave the nightclub without paying their tab of £50,000 (about $64K) and then ‘squared up to bouncers outside the nightspot.'”

The NFL Network’s Ian Rapaport reported the names of the players involved:
