Adam “Pac Man” Jones Looks To Take Brand To Next Level
Successful Launch Has Bengals Legend Pushing Harder Than Ever
By Deon Cash
Adam “Pac Man" Jones has been in the limelight in media his entire sports career.
Whether it was his meteoric rise towards stardom, his run-ins with the law, the historic nightlife, his flamboyant style of play, his unbelievable audio and video interviews, or the vintage Bengals - Steelers clashes, “Pac Man" has always been a “Front Page" type of player.
Since his retirement 2 seasons ago, Jones has jumped into the business field in a similar way.
On the field, during his playing career, Jones was a absolute savage. He was second to none when it came to shutting down wide receivers, running kicks and punts back, and providing some much needed juice or energy for the team.
Even in his last season, he ranked in the top 5 in DB yards and catches allowed in man to man coverage, which is a amazing stat.
While Jones has had his share of moments of regret, he seems to be very happy with the progress of his very successful launch of his new J24 Athletic Complex in Amelia, Ohio.
“We definitely are pleased with the launch and the response from the community and city of Cincinnati. We just want to continue to build. We want more! The city has embraced me and my family, and we want to give back!” Jones said with excitement, as if he was about to snatch a INT or stop a 3rd down conversion with a batted pass.
With Jones wife and partners being more involved, it seems as if Pac Man has everything coming together nicely on the business end. The J24 Complex has been busy since the opening a few months ago. They work with youth and adults in sports training and devlopment.
Jones, like another former Bengal and legend Chad OchoCinco, will be debuting in the boxing ring as well, as he trains for a big showcase fight in Early August in Louisville.
“I want to continue to test my limits and push harder than I ever have.” Jones said.
“I gave everything to football. But I still have a lot more to give.”
After Jones showed us the footage of him sparring, one thing is for certain:
Pac Man Jones will be ready for war come August.
But in the last year, Jones has shown a maturity, a growth that only happens when you are done playing professional sports. He has shown that he can, and will be taken seriously as a elite business brand also. He has a couple of camps and other sporting events that are in the works already.
He also could be looking into getting in the sports media side of the field, where he could be Co-Hosting a new TV Show / Podcast or be a Football Analyst for the upcoming season with Fox Sports Radio in Cincinnati and Dayton.
S.E.Live365, a 2-Time Award Winning Sports show, & one of the hottest sports shows in the country in its own right, has made a very strong bid to the Jones camp, along with others.
But make no mistake. Whatever Pac Man decides to do, best believe he will do it going 110% and successfully.
And it will be Front Page Headlines, as only Pac Man can do himself.
