There have multiple issues throughout the history of the National Football League, with players and former players getting in trouble with the law. All-Pro defensive back Adam “Pacman” Jones was arrested for making terroristic threats and alcohol intoxication at an airport near Cincinnati on Monday morning, according to TMZ Sports.
The former sixth overall pick in the 2005 NFL draft was taken into custody at about 6 AM and booked an hour later. As of this writing, we do not have any more information about the incident, but the terroristic threats charge is notable for it being the 22nd anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks.
Jones spoke with the media after the incident that happened at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport after being released from being arrested.

It will be interesting to see if there are any more videos or evidence released to show the incident in question.
What does this incident mean for the future of former All-Pro Adam “Pac-Man” Jones?
This is not the first time the former Cincinnati Bengal player has had some issues with law enforcement. He was suspended for the entire 2007 NFL season due to a shooting incident and retired from the league after the 2018 season.

Jones has been a contributor on the Pat McAfee Show, and with the partnership with ESPN simulcasting the YouTube show, it will be interesting if the topic is broached or if Jones will make an appearance ever again.
