Former NFL player  Adam “Pacman” Jones was arrested early Saturday morning in Kenton County, near Cincinnati.

The 41-year-old was booked just before 2 a.m. by the Covington Police Department and faced charges including alcohol intoxication in a public place, disorderly conduct, and assault of a police or probation officer. Jones posted a $10,000 bond and was released later that morning.

This marks at least the fourth arrest for Jones since 2021, with public intoxication charges recorded for three consecutive years. In 2023, Jones was removed from a Cincinnati airport flight and charged with intoxication, disorderly conduct, and terroristic threatening. Last year, he was arrested in Arlington, Texas, on similar charges during the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson boxing event.

The most serious recent incident occurred in 2021 when Jones pleaded no contest to misdemeanor assault related to a bar altercation in Cincinnati. He served 18 days in jail.

Jones was the sixth overall pick in the 2005 NFL Draft and played 12 seasons, primarily with the Cincinnati Bengals. His career highlights include an All-Pro selection as a kick returner in 2014 and a Pro Bowl nod as a cornerback in 2015.
