Former NFL star Adam ‘Pacman’ Jones was arrested after attending Jake Paul and Mike Tyson’s showdown in Arlington, Texas, in the early hours of Saturday morning.
Jones, who played 13 seasons in the NFL, was taken into custody outside Loews Arlington Hotel – a short walk from AT&T Stadium where Tyson and Paul exchanged blows.
The former cornerback was arrested on a number of charges, including public intoxication, resisting arrest, evading arrest and assault on a police officer, according to Arlington Police Department’s booking records.
Jones was released Saturday morning on a $319 bond, according to jail records.
The former NFL player attended the highly-anticipated bout between the legendary boxer and the former YouTuber at AT&T Stadium – the home of the Dallas Cowboys – just hours before his arrest.
He shared a video to Instagram Friday night of himself with comedian Tom Segura, enjoying the fight night festivities.

The arrest is just the latest in a storied history with the law for Jones, who enjoyed stints with the Tennessee Titans, Dallas Cowboys, Cincinnati Bengals and Denver Broncos before calling it quits in 2018.
Jones has had multiple run-ins with the law throughout his adult life – having been arrested ten times since 2000 and previously been suspended by the Bengals.
Just last December, he pled guilty to a disorderly conduct charge in a Kentucky courtroom after a meltdown on an airplane.
Appearing in a Boone County courtroom to issue a plea, Jones apologized to the officers he screamed at in the midst of an outburst while on a plane at Covington Airport in Kentucky, just across the Ohio River from Cincinnati.
As a part of his plea deal, the charges of alcohol intoxication and making a terrorist threat he was facing were dropped.
Jones was sentenced to 30 days in jail, but suspended imposing the sentence – which meant he walked free and wouldn’t have to serve any time if he stayed out of trouble for the next two years. It is unclear how Saturday’s arrest will affect the sentencing.
He notoriously got into a brawl in Atlanta Airport in 2008, although police later determined he was not the aggressor.

In October 2008, he was involved in an altercation with his bodyguard in a Dallas hotel, which led to him being suspended four games by the NFL for breaking its personal conduct policy.
In February 2019, police arrested Jones at a casino in Indiana after allegations of cheating on the blackjack table he was seated at.
It is reported that Jones ‘immediately became verbally combative and disorderly’ and he was booked at 3am on charges of disorderly conduct, intimidation, resisting arrest and public intoxication.
He is most famous for his time spent with Cincinnati, playing seven NFL seasons with the team between 2010 and 2017. During that time, he was voted to the Pro Bowl in 2015 and was a first-team All-Pro in 2014.
