The Cincinnati Bengals informed cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones on Friday that they will not pick up his option for the 2018 season, according to Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com.
Jones said the Bengals told him they would like to re-sign him in free agency to compete as a nickel corner and returner. He said he'd "love to come back" but told Hobson, "I have to sit down and make [a] decision with family" if a team makes him an offer to be a starting cornerback.
The 34-year-old started all nine games he played before ending 2017 on injured reserve with a groin injury.
