According to the Orleans Parish medical examiner in New Orleans, Jones died due to the result of hypertensive cardiovascular disease. Per Jones’ family, he died peacefully in his sleep at his New Orleans home on July 14, three days after his 40th birthday.

The medical examiner listed the manner of death as natural.

Hypertensive heart disease is often linked to high blood pressure that remains untreated for an extended period and could lead to heart failure.

Perhaps best known for the longest touchdown return in Super Bowl history as a member of the Ravens in 2013, Jones spent five seasons with the Texans before departing for Baltimore. Drafted in the third round out of Lane College in 2007, Jones caught 127 passes for 1,741 yards and 11 touchdowns. He also returned three punts for scores.

While Jones made history with his 108-yard kick return for a touchdown, Jones also factored in the passing for Joe Flacco. Before halftime, he hauled in a 56-yard pass to extend the Ravens’ lead by two scores.

“He was fun to be around, lit up any room that he walked into with his great spirit, and he’ll be truly missed,” Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said following his death. “I was very saddened to hear the news of him passing. Just truly feel sorry for the family and for all of his teammates, all the lives he’s touched. Jacoby, I remember he always did a great job of working camps and working with kids, and he always did an excellent job of doing that.”
