    Do people really understand how elite of a prospect this guy was coming out of West Virginia. He was so good he was the first defender taken in the 05 draft ahead of DeMarcus Ware. The talent he had is the reason he was given so many changes. He was one of the more fluid quick twitch athletes I ever saw. Good hands for a CB and he was aggressive. He is easily one the top 5 CB prospects of the last 20 years. He was set for Multiple All pro and pro bowl selections but the season long suspension put that talk on hold. He did finish strong however and made it 10 plus years in the NFL

      Pacman, along with so many other players, are proof the NFL is perhaps the most forgiving employer out there. This can be said about most sports of course, but if I were arrested for even the most mild of Pacman's many transgressions, I would be fired on the spot at my job. As long as you're talented and you don't go Ray Rice by getting caught on camera punching out your future wife, you'll be just fine in sports.

    I just want to say that this is probably my third ever comment ever on TH-cam. I’ve started watching your videos three days ago and haven’t stopped. Not because of the content, or because I’m a massive fan of football. But because of the way the content is DELIVERED.
    My personality is similar to yours where we have a mediator mindset, as in we STRONGLY believe there are always two sides to a story. No matter how small one side is, regardless of the fact that it makes it ‘ok’ for a person to act the way they do. You lay out the facts, or even rumors, give your own opinion and ALLOW viewers to see everything with an open mind.
    I love you man and all the work you put into these videos. CUE the WAYNE!

    As a long time Titans fan, I have so much love and respect for Adam "Pac-Man" Jones. I'm so proud of him and how he was able to turn his career around because we all know that he could have easily ended up like a Johnny Manziel type of player. If I meet Pac-Man Jones, I will hug him and let him know how much of a role model he's become.

    @redmustangredmustang 4 ปีที่แล้ว +22

    I am just shocked that he didn't end up like Tupac and got shot in a drive by in a place like Vegas or hell out in the streets with all the ruckus he was involved in. I mean usually a guy would be spending time in prison like you saw with Lawrence Phillips. Luckily for Pacman, he made due with basically his last chance and took advantage of it.

      I mean yes and no, AB was doing things before the hit but they weren't never publicized. If you listen to Ryan Clark he'll tell you how he got the big head soon as he got his first deal. The worst thing to happen to AB unfortunately was becoming a superstar. I think Flemlo should do a What happened to Antonio Brown video soon. I don't think he's gonna make it back to the NFL personally but we'll see.

I know he wants to play but he wouldn't make nearly the same amount of money. Could he get any endorsements in that league? Would it help him get back into the NFL? Might be his only shot of playing again but I would probably just retire first.
