cville river jellyfish?



decided to walk on the other side of the dunes today, which is next to the cville river, My phone was dying so I only took acouple pics, the second is what I think is a jellyfish? Its only my second time walking on this part of the beach, last time was around 1:00, today I was there around 5:00, but these were all over the sand, most of them smaller, but this one was pretty big, Ive only seen a jellyfish in the water once, that was during one of my swimming lessons and I screamed and ran out of the water, thankfully without getting stung, I've also seen those kinds of jelly fish that just look like little piles of clear goo, moon jellyfish i think?, you can touch and play with them and they don't sting you, but i think most of the time i've seen these have been at a beach in naragansett, not near here at all so thats why I was confused to see these little guys and because they were brown in the middle. So who knows, I didnt touch it with my hands, I tapped it with my foot, I assume they were dead, if it was even a jellyfish, maybe it was just pollution or something. It was also weird because they were washed up on the river side of the beach not on the ocean side.

anyone know what it is? or have ideas?
