Donald Trump’s support among former NFL stars is continuing in New Orleans this week, where ex-Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Adam ‘Pacman’ Jones told DailyMail.com of his happiness with the President ahead of Super Bowl LIX.
‘I’m very excited,’ the MAGA-hat-wearing Jones said Saturday when asked about Trump’s attendance at the Superdome for Eagles-Chiefs. ‘I’m excited that he’s the President, too.’
He even voiced his ‘love’ for Trump’s billionaire donor Elon Musk.
Asked at Sports Illustrated’s Super Bowl party why he supports Trump, the 41-year-old quickly responded ‘everything’ before adding a brief caveat.
‘95.9 percent things he saying I agree with,’ Jones said. ‘Only thing I don’t agree with is the women’s rights thing, and I think that’s gonna be worked out in the coming future.’
Jones did not say which women’s rights issue he was referring to, but Trump has been criticized for installing the Supreme Court justices responsible for ending protections for abortions rights in the United States.

As for the early weeks of Trump’s second term, Jones remained enthusiastic about the current President – particularly his plans to tariff foreign countries’ goods.
‘F***ing doing good,’ Jones said. ‘Hell yeah, you ain’t happy? We about to tax everybody’s mother***ing a**.’
Trump has also received support from a number of current NFL stars, such as Joey Bosa and Tyreek Hill, as well as former stars such as ex-Pittsburgh Steelers teammates Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell.
Jones’ support for Trump may come as a surprise, given the President’s past description of himself as a ‘law-and-order candidate.’
A West Virginia legend and long-time NFL troublemaker, Jones was regularly arrested throughout his playing career on a series of charges related to firearms, ᴀssault, marijuana possession, failure to contact a probation officer and felony vandalism.
In one instance he was accused of grabbing an exotic dancer by her hair and slamming her head onto the stage. Minutes later, a gunman sH๏τ three people at the Las Vegas club’s entrance. Jones denied knowing the shooter but was later accused of paying the man $15,000 in extortion. Jones was ultimately ordered to pay the victims more than $12 million.
Jones’ history of arrests include charges for ᴀssault, vandalism, and public intoxication
Although he’s avoided any lengthy prison sentences, Jones did get a year-long suspension from NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell in 2007.
Most recently, Jones was arrested at AT&T Stadium outside Dallas for allegedly getting into a fight during Jake Paul’s win over Mike Tyson. He’s been charged with one count of ᴀssault on a peace officer, public intoxication, and resisting arrest.
Despite his problems, Jones remained a productive NFL cornerback from 2005 until 2018. His best years may have come with the Cincinnati Bengals, for whom he played eight seasons, earning Pro Bowl and All-Pro honors along the way.
Asked for this thoughts on Sunday’s game, Jones refused to bet against the Chiefs due to the presence of their legendary head coach.
‘ I like Chiefs. I like the under, 48.5, and I like the Chiefs,’ he said. ‘I think the game will be 17-24. Ain’t nobody beat Andy Reid with two weeks to prepare.’
