Ex-NFL star Adam ‘Pacman’ Jones arrested after allegedly ᴀssaulting police officer

Former NFL star Adam “Pacman” Jones was arrested early Saturday and is facing three separate charges, according to arrest records viewed by The Post.

Jones, 41, was arrested in Kentucky and charged with public intoxication, disorderly conduct and ᴀssaulting a police officer before being booked at Kenton County Jail at 1:51 a.m.

The Cincinnati Enquirer, citing a police spokesperson, confirmed the arrest and said Jones allegedly ᴀssaulted a Covington police officer.

He was later released on bond.

It’s unclear what led to Saturday’s arrest.

This incident comes months after the 2005 No. 6 overall draft pick was arrested following the highly anticipated November Jake Paul-Mike Tyson bout in Arlington, Texas, where Jones was reportedly charged with alleged public intoxication, resisting arrest and ᴀssault of a police officer.

In 2023, Jones was arrested and charged with alcohol intoxication, disorderly conduct and terroristic threatening at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport after an argument with airline employees over USB ports near his seat on the flight, WLWT5 reported at the time.

He later pleaded guilty to the disorderly conduct charge while the other two charges were dropped, according to WLWT5.

Jones, a one-time All-Pro and Pro Bowler, had numerous arrests during his 12-year NFL career, and he was suspended the entire 2007 season and part of 2008 by commissioner Roger Goodell for violating the league’s conduct policy.

He last played in the NFL in 2018.
