The Tarrant County District Attorney's office didn't return phone calls or e-mails Monday seeking comment about the gag order.
Jones' attorney, Marcus Norman of Arlington, would not comment on the sexual assault charges Monday, citing the gag order.
Jones' name wasn't listed on the gag order, but Norman said Salvant told him the order also applied to Jones' case.
Jones was transferred to the Tarrant County Jail from Mansfield Jail on Thursday where he is being held on $27,000 in bonds, according to jail records. Records show Jones is being held on a $25,000 bond for the sexual assault charges and a $2,000 bond for an outstanding Collin County warrant for a charge of assault/bodily injury.
Taylor and Behling hired attorneys last week and were released from Mansfield Jail on Oct. 24 after posting $25,000 bail bonds, according to court and jail records.
Jones is a former member of the football team and Behling and Taylor are former members of the basketball team. Jones and Taylor were released from their teams for unrelated reasons prior to the alleged assault. Behling was released from the basketball team in response to the sexual assault charges.

Such problems will start to be appear more and more often because the press is crossing some legal limits and when that happens, well, they have to reveal their sources. (Continued…)
