New Orleans Police spokeswoman Shereese Harper said the responding officers to the single-car accident involving New York Giants third-round safety Chad Jones last Friday morning determined that alcohol was not a factor in the accident.

"The officers on the scene had no reason to believe alcohol was involved," Harper said, according to Randy Rosetta of The Advocate.

Harper added that no toxicology tests were performed on Jones.

"We have two tests we use when the driver is alive: The Intoxilyzer 5000 (breath test) and a blood test," Harper said. "Obviously, we couldn’t administer the breathalyzer, because the driver needed to go to the hospital. And when the officers got to the hospital to request a blood test, he was already in surgery and by then it was too late."

Doctors sustained multiple fractures, but doctors were able to save Jones' left foot. Jones has already begun rehab, but there is no timetable for his recovery. The Giants are expected to place Jones on the "Non-Football Injury" list, and Rocky Arceneaux, Jones' agent, hasn't ruled out a return to the football field in 2011.

Jones, who played baseball at LSU, was also a 50th round pick by the Milwaukee Brewers in the 2010 MLB Draft.
