New Steelers cornerback William Jackson III doesn’t have any love lost with Adam “Pac Man” Jones, his former teammate.
Jones has been relentlessly going after Jackson.
After a poor showing, getting burned repeatedly by the Cowboys in a game last month, Jones took to social media.
Jones posted a video where he knocks on a Char-Broil grill asking, "Will Jack, you in there?"
Jackson allowed five catches in the game for 62 yards and a touchdown on seven targets. He also cost the Commanders 70 yards on three penalties, one of which negated a Kam Curl interception.
A few days after the game, Jones went on The Fan’s brother station in Washington D.C., 106.7 The Fan and said, "They barbecued his ass on Sunday and the temperature was at 450," Jones said. "I knew I wasn't the only one. I guess I was the only one that was man enough to come out and say it the way I said it. And I said it -- like if he plays better, I'll get off of him. But he hasn't played good. He hasn't played good since last year."
After the trade with the Steelers was made official, Jones went after Jackson again.
“Now you went and took your ass to Pittsburgh, oh my god, I’m on your ass every week boy!” said Jones. “Pittsburgh should be ashamed of that f*****g trash.”
If Jackson struggles in Pittsburgh, we’re sure to hear about it from “Pac Man”.
The trade for Jackson is for a conditional sixth-round pick in 2025 being swapped for a conditional 2025 seventh-round pick.
It was believed Jackson was unhappy in Washington and would’ve been released if a deal with another team wasn’t made.
