(Rising Sun, Ind.) - Former Cincinnati Bengals player Adam “Pacman” Jones is back in the Dearborn County Jail for a few days.

Jones was in Ohio County court Friday to plead guilty to felony cheating at a gambling game and misdemeanor resisting law enforcement. Other charges were dropped.

His sentence as part of a plea agreement includes two weeks in jail, with credit given for days he served immediately after his arrest. Once he is released this week, he will be on probation for one year.

Jones, 35, was arrested at Rising Star Casino in Rising Sun in February after he was caught capping bets at a table game. Capping bets means changing your bet after the outcome of a hand or game has already been determined or likely.

Jones then became confrontational with Indiana Gaming Commission agents.

Currently a free agent, Jones has played 14 seasons in the NFL. He spent eight seasons with the Bengals, earning one Pro Bowl appearance.

His past run-ins with the law have been well documented.
