So much for the rehabilitation of Pacman Jones.
Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam “Pacman” Jones has been suspended for at least four games for his most recent violation of the league’s personal conduct policy, the NFL announced Tuesday.
In announcing his decision, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said Jones’ “disturbing pattern of behavior was clearly inconsistent with the conditions I set for your continued participation in the NFL.”
Goodell will determine the final length of Jones’ suspension following the Cowboys’ Week 11 game against Washington on Nov. 16, the league said.
In his latest transgression, Jones was involved in an alcohol-related physical altercation at a Dallas hotel on Oct. 8 that resulted in hotel employees calling the police.
Anyone who watched HBO’s “Hard Knocks,” which followed the Cowboys through their training camp, probably thought that Jones had turned a corner in his life. We witnessed Jones’ happiness when he got the news that Goodell had reinstated him, but now the honeymoon is over and Jones is acting like his old self.
Buyer beware.
