PACMAN MISBEHAVES AT SYMPOSIUM
A league source tells us that, at the recently completed NFL rookie symposium, Titans first-round draft pick Pacman Jones was seen talking on his cell phone on multiple occasions during the various sessions he was attending.
Openly. Audibly. Brazenly.
Such conduct is supposed to be prohibited, and the attendees were told that fines would be meted out.
From all indications, however, Pacman hasn't gotten dinged for his transgression.
There also was talk at the symposium that Pacman has been living up in Tennessee, spending anywhere from $5,000 to $10,000 in a given night at Nashville clubs.
We've always been partial to the sixth overall pick from West Virginia, who excelled as a cover man and punt returner in two full seasons as a starter with the Mountaineers. But more and more people around the league think that the kid is going to crash and burn if he doesn't change his ways.
It'll be very interesting to see how Pacman's contract with the Titans will be structured, in light of the apparent potential for off-field problems. If they're smart, they'll protect themselves.
If they're still in denial, however, they won't.
