BOSTON -- Boston College junior cornerback Bryce Jones has been dismissed from the football team for violating team rules, coach Steve Addazio said Friday.

The school did not specify details of the violation.

Jones was tied for fourth on the Eagles with 20 tackles. He also had an interception in last week's loss to Colorado State. He has started 18 games in his BC career, making 97 tackles, including seven for a loss. He recovered three fumbles in 2013, when he was a sophomore.

Boston College is off this weekend and plays at North Carolina State on Oct. 11.
