Two more Kansas State football players have shown up on Riley County Police arrest reports.

Late on Monday night, K-State linebacker Daniel Green, 21, and safety Wayne Jones, 19, both of 3901 Bayside Way, No. 304 in Manhattan, were both arrested at 1001 South Seth Child Road by the RCPD on charges of possession of marijuana, while Green was also cited with a driving while suspended charge, his first conviction. Both posted bonds of $1,000, according to the RCPD arrest report.

“I am extremely disappointed in the poor choices made recently by some of our student-athletes," Klieman said in a statement released by Kansas State athletics media relations. "We have high expectations within our program, and when those expectations are not met, there are consequences. The high standards and expectations within our football program will not change, and the character and integrity of the players on our team will not be compromised.”

The statement added that Klieman will handle all disciplinary action internally and have no further comment on the matter at this time.

These arrests come just a few days after three other players were arrested over the weekend. Freshman linebacker Demarrquese Hayes and sophomore linebacker Nick Allen were both arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, while redshirt freshman running back Jacardia Wright was arrested on an outstanding warrant for failure to appear.

Green and Jones were both starters on the K-State defense that was among the best in the Big 12 in 2019. Statistically, Jones was the third-leading tackler for the Wildcats. He had 58 total tackles, which was just seven behind leader Elijah Sullivan at 65. Jones also recorded 0.5 tackles for loss, one pass breakup and one quarterback hurry. He went through some growing pains along the way as a redshirt freshman, but certainly has the eyes of the K-State coaches moving forward.

“Wayne's been phenomenal,” safeties coach Joe Klanderman said ahead of the 2019 season. “He’s just got a great natural sense for the game. Really understands what we're doing, works hard at it, unbelievable communicator. He’s going to be a good player here for a long time.”

Green is a player that many in the K-State community had been looking forward to seeing in action after a dramatic recruiting process that led him to Manhattan. He finished the 2019 season with 33 total tackles, 3.5 for loss, two sacks, three pass breakups, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery.

“He’s very hungry,” former defensive coordinator and linebacker coach Scottie Hazelton said of Green in fall camp. “Even in the transition from spring to fall you’ve seen him grow and mature in just his attitude toward working and his ability to say, ‘I’m going to study this and make sure I have it down,’ and his checks and his alignments and how he fits in things. You’ve seen him mature and it’s been great.

“He’s a very instinctual guy. He’s long and has the ability to run. All of those things together give you the ability to be a pretty good linebacker. He’s a guy that understands the game of football. He has some range to him. Now we’re working on when he identifies something — zoom — going and making plays on it. That’s part of the learning curve.”
