Jon Jones appears confident that his suspension from the Octagon won't last much longer.

Jones, who is currently sidelined after testing positive for two banned estrogen blockers, expressed his belief that he'll be able to continue his career soon in a video posted to his Instagram on Sunday.

"I'm sure you guys are curious about what's going on with this USADA situation," Jones said, according to FOXSports' Damon Martin. "Obviously, I can't get into it because it's still pending but what I can say is that we have found out lots of really good news and I am expecting to be back in the Octagon really soon."

Jones was removed from the headliner of UFC 200 after failing a drug test on June 16. He is suspended pending appeal, but there is no word on when his case will be heard.

"I've been doing really good. I've been training, spending time with family, attacking some of these legal issues that I've gotten myself into, trying to really just leave that all behind once and for all," Jones said.
