Former National Football League player Julius Jones has filed a lawsuit accusing prominent real estate developer John Yanopoulos of swindling him out of his savings, which he invested in a furniture company, Euro Interiors Inc.

Richard Segal and Jamie Zuckerman of Segal Zuckerman in Miami represent Jones, who played for the Dallas Cowboys, Seattle Seahawks and New Orleans Saints between 2004 and 2011, and “unfortunately now has to cope with being another football statistic,” according to the Aug. 20 complaint.
