Kimani Jones (born December 21, 1981) is a former American football offensive lineman. Prior to his Arena Football career, he played football at Arkansas State University; as a senior, Jones earned First Team All-Sun Belt Conference honors.[1]
In 2008, following his departure from Arkansas State, Jones joined the Arena Football League's Cleveland Gladiators. As a rookie, Jones appeared in all sixteen of the team's regular season games; moreover, he caught six passes for twenty yards and a touchdown.[2] His career was interrupted by the AFL's 2009 decision to suspend operations; during this time, Jones signed with the Omaha Beef of the Indoor Football League, where he earned Second Team All-IFL honors. When the league returned in 2010, Jones signed on with the Bossier-Shreveport Battle Wings. He appeared in eleven games during his lone season with the team. In 2011, Jones joined the AFL's Kansas City Command; over two seasons, he would appear in all but two of Kansas City's games. The Command folded at the end of the 2012 season; following this, Jones sat out the entire 2013 Arena Football League season.[2] On April 2, 2014, he signed with the San Jose SaberCats; Jones appeared in twelve games (starting nine) as the SaberCats won their first division title since 2008.[3] In May 2015, following the SaberCats' 2014 playoff loss to the Arizona Rattlers, Jones rejoined the SaberCats; he won his first AFL Championship when San Jose beat the Jacksonville Sharks in ArenaBowl XXVIII at the end of the season. He resides in California.
