New bodycam footage showing the aftermath of Adam “Pacman” Jones’ arrest has been released by TMZ.
Pacman Jones, former NFL player and current contributor to The Pat McAfee Show, was arrested early Monday for allegedly causing a disturbance on a plane. Newly released video from police cruiser cam shows the moments after the former Cincinnati Bengals player was taken into custody.
“I did not threaten anyone,” Pacman told TMZ.com. “I was not drunk. And, as the video clearly shows, I was the one who was mistreated.”
Just looking at the video shows that it did not look as if Pacman was ever impaired as previously reported. Despite that, the 39-year-old was charged with alcohol intoxication, disorderly conduct, and terroristic threatening after he reportedly argued with airplane employees over the USB ports near his seat on the flight.
Airport police tried to de-escalate the situation but Jones was “combative and argumentative.”

In the arrest video that has now come to light, Jones is also seen in the back of a police cruiser and appears to be questioning why he was arrested in the first place.
“You said I was drunk,” Jones said while seated in the car. “Bitch, breathalyze me. I’m not drunk.”
The officer then says Jones was hit with an alcohol intoxication charge which prompted Pacman to go on a tirade and claim he only had consumed one drink.
“How the f–k you going to lock me up for alcohol and you ain’t breathalyze me?” he asked. “You sound stupid as f–k. It’s 6 AM in the morning, n—-. I had one f–king drink, which was a Pinot f–king Grigio. Go to the f–king bar and ask them. You stupid f–kers!”
Jones ranted some more and then claimed the officer was going to get “fired” for his arrest.
As for where he was trying to go, Jones was trying to get to New Jersey to see “Monday Night Football,” which was played between the Jets and Bills.
The former All-Pro played for the Bengals from 2010-17, finishing his career with the Broncos in 2018.
