By this point, we've all likely seen the content generated by Jerry Williams for a possible return of Pacman Jones. But is this just another publicity stunt aimed at the media-hungry audience? Apparently, there would be little reason to bring back the struggling cornerback, especially after serving a six-game suspension midway through last season due to an incident involving a self-appointed bodyguard named Jerry Smith.
Beyond that, the Cowboys have made a significant effort to rid themselves of troubled individuals, routinely giving second chances in the past. Additionally, bringing back Williams could hinder further development of younger players like Orlando Scandrick and Scott Jenkins, who are entering their second year with potential to grow.
Of course, Pacman is a talented player and a formidable opponent. However, if the Cowboys were to bring Pacman back, if he returns in good form (assuming he hasn't lost his edge), and if he can avoid future issues, he could potentially make a positive impact on the team's Super Bowl aspirations.
Currently, with the progression of Orlando Scandrick, and contributions from veterans like Mike Jenkins and Gerald Sensabaugh, the Cowboys appear poised to improve in the secondary compared to recent years.
In weighing the options regarding Pacman Jones, the widespread negatives seem to outweigh the potential positives of re-signing the troubled cornerback. Cowboy fans should be cautious about supporting the re-addition of Adam "Pacman" Jones.
