Popular YouTuber-turned-fighter Jake Paul ended a long Friday night event with a win by unanimous decision over the former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson at AT&T Stadium, the home of the Dallas Cowboys. However, the night didn't end on a positive note for everyone in the area.

Former NFL cornerback and returner Adam "Pacman" Jones, who played one year with the Cowboys in 2008, was arrested on multiple charges and taken into custody after the fight, according to TMZ Sports.

The incident occurred at the Loews Arlington Hotel right by the stadium in Arlington, Texas.

TMZ posted a video of Jones being handcuffed and escorted out of the building by several officers while donning a cowboy outfit.

Per TMZ Sports, the former All-Pro defensive back was booked for alleged public intoxication, resisting and evading arrest and assaulting a police officer.

Before Friday, the cornerback had been arrested, charged or cited by police 10 different times since 2000, more than any other NFL player, according to USA Today's NFL player arrests database.

The most recent came in December 2023, when Jones arrested at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport after local authorities received a report of an "unruly passenger."

After three seasons with the West Virginia Mountaineers, Jones was selected with the No. 6 pick in the 2005 NFL draft by the Tennessee Titans. Following the 2007 season, Jones was acquired by the Cowboys via trade but spent just one season in Big D.

After missing the 2009 NFL season, Jones found a home with the Cincinnati Bengals, where he became a Pro Bowler and a first-team All-Pro during his eight seasons with the team from 2010-2017.
