😳 #Bengals https://t.co/d1HQfAeVCQ— Fountain SQ Sports (@fosqsp) April 17, 2017Adam Pacman Jones anger management classes are going real well
Never go full Pacman.

🙄— Trey (@3rdsworld) April 17, 2017First day of voluntary workouts and Pacman is already screaming at reporters for asking him questions about his offseason. Neat.
After being named a captain following the wild card penalty in 2016, Pacman just might be given a share of the team after this offseason.

And Pacman continues to show he hasn't learned a thing. Unbelievable. https://t.co/qJIDzY2Vpy

Does #Pacman ever learn? The answer would seem to be a resounding no! https://t.co/nJFjkWJyyg

Did Pacman become a Top 5 corner over night? Can someone explain to me why the Bengals are keeping this dude around!? https://t.co/BMEUq4XvEq

Death, taxes, and Pacman Jones losing his temper.....

Jones has proven to be a talented-but-troubled playmaker since coming into the NFL more than a decade ago.
The Bengals signed him in 2010 after he had been suspended for all of the 2007 season and part of ’08 as a member of the Tennessee Titans then Dallas Cowboys.
He has been involved in several off-field incidents during his time in Cincinnati and played an integral role in the team’s worst on-field moment this century – a meltdown that gave the Steelers and easy opportunity to win a playoff game in Cincinnati in January 2016.

What’s next for Jones remains to be seen.
Owner Mike Brown came down unapologetically in his corner last month, so it seems unlikely he is going anywhere.
Prior to his outburst Monday, Jones said all the right things about being allowed to remain a Bengal.
