Jones, 33, is accused ofย assaulting a man and exhibiting "turbulent behavior" outside the Banks entertainment district in Cincinnati, according to a police report viewed by the news station.

A reporter for Good Morning Cincinnati tweeted that Jones "allegedly pushed a security guard and poked him in the eye." Jones also reportedly kicked and pulled away from a police officer as he tried to leave the scene.

Jones was also charged with harassment with a bodily substance after he allegedlyย spit on a jail medical-staff nurse.

Jones, who was drafted by the Tennessee Titans, wasย suspendedย by the teamย for the entire 2007 season after multiple arrests, including being involved in a fight at a Las Vegas strip club that resulted in someone getting shot and paralyzed.

Jones, who is under contract with the Bengals until 2018, is to appear in court Tuesday.
