CINCINNATI, Ohio -- Bengals cornerback Adam (Pacman) Jones pleaded not guilty Tuesday to an assault charge after police say he hit a woman at a nightclub last week, the latest in a string of legal troubles hes had. An lawyer for Jones, 29, entered the plea a day after he was arrested and then released on his own recognizance. He attended the start of the Bengals training camp Tuesday and worked out with the team in the afternoon, but declined to comment. Jones is accused of hitting a 34-year-old woman at a downtown Cincinnati nightclub Wednesday shortly before midnight. A police report lists the injury as apparently minor. Jones attorney, Edward Perry, declined to comment. "The situation Adam Jones is in obviously is not something you want to get involved in," coach Marvin Lewis said. "Its unfortunate that hes in this situation. Thats really about all I can add to it." Surveillance video of altercation, obtained by a local radio station and verified as authentic by Cincinnati police, appears to show Jones approaching two seated women outside the club. Then, a third woman approaches Jones and appears to confront him. The grainy video shows the woman reach toward Jones face but its unclear what she does or whether shes holding anything in her hand. Jones then appears to hit the woman, who falls to the ground but quickly gets up and follows Jones off-camera as another man with him ushers him away. The woman in the video, identified by police as 34-year-old Shannon Wesley, did not return a call for comment. Jones could be punished by the National Football League under its conduct policy. Spokesman Greg Aiello said the league would review the latest arrest when appropriate. Jones wasnt suspended for an arrest in July 2011, when he was accused of being disorderly, shouting profanities and trying to pull away as officers arrested him at a bar in downtown Cincinnati. As part of an agreement to settle that case, he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanour count of disorderly conduct in Hamilton County Municipal Court and was sentenced to one year of probation and 50 hours of community service. Hed stayed out of trouble until his latest arrest. Last year, he was ordered to pay $11 million in damages to two Las Vegas strip club employees injured in 2007 when a gunman claiming he was doing Jones bidding opened fire outside the club after Jones and his entourage were kicked out. A club manager was paralyzed from the waist down and a bouncer was wounded. Jones said he had no role in the shooting and pleaded an equivalent of no contest to misdemeanour conspiracy to commit disorderly conduct. The gunman, Arvin Kenti Edwards, is serving four to 10 years in prison. Jones got into a lot of trouble early in his career. The cornerback was the sixth overall pick in 2005 but repeatedly had off-field issues with Tennessee, resulting in suspensions. He missed the entire 2007 season on suspension and sat out the 2009 season when no team was interested. The Bengals gave him another chance and he has taken advantage of it, developing into their third cornerback and punt returner. Instead of being a distraction, hes blended into one of the leagues top defences. Cincinnati finished sixth last season in yards allowed. Hes also become close to some of the other defensive players. "I didnt know much about him before, but hes been one of my best friends since a little while after he got here," cornerback Leon Hall said. "We kind of meshed. We live not too far from each other. We dont have the same personality, but weve clicked pretty well. Hes been a pleasure for me ever since he came out here."

DETROIT -- Matt Boyd is more focused on the present than the future.The young left-hander is making a strong case to be counted on for inclusion in the Detroit Tigers 2017 rotation.He understands that goal can best be served by pitching well enough to remain a Detroit starter through the end of the season, which so far he has done exceedingly well.Boyd (5-2, 3.98 ERA) starts Monday night against the Chicago White Sox at Comerica Park in the opening of a three-game series. Detroit holds an 8-5 edge over Chicago so far.When you start looking within your division, we havent played (that well), White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. You have to be able to reverse that, find a way to be able to win those games.Games like (Saturday night, 9-3 win over Seattle) can help. But you want to be able to do that within your division.We have some tough teams within the division as well, teams that can pitch, and Detroit, offensively, thats a tough team. You have to be able to stop them and you have to be able to score just like they do.Boyd has allowed three runs or less in each of his last eight starts, going 5-0 with a 2.38 ERA since July 9. Boyd has started twice against the White Sox this season, the only times he has faced them, without a decision and a 7.27 ERA.Hell be tasked with stopping a two-game Detroit slide that followed a five-game winning streak as the Tigers lost to the Los Angeles Angels on Sunday, 5-0.Boyd, Daniel Norris and Michael Fulmer give Detroit three young pitchers in their rotation and the trio do their workouts together, dissect their performances with one another and push one another to exceed expectations.While those three might get pushed back in the Tigers rotation after Thursdays day off, Wednesdays starter, Justin Verlander, is probable to pitch in turn through Septembber.ddddddddddddIf the team wants me to go on regular rest, Verlander said, I think thats a big benefit of having a guy thats been a workhorse for a long time. Im going to be honest with Brad and tell him if Im good to go or not.Im happy to do it. As long as I feel stay feeling good, Im good to go.The White Sox have veteran James Shields (5-16, 5.98 ERA) set for the opener.His ERA with Chicago is 7.49 in 15 starts but for August its 13.95 in five outings. Hes faced the Tigers three times this season, going 0-2 with a 7.88 ERA.The right-hander has had mixed results against Detroit over the years. In 22 starts, he is 7-8 with a 4.53 ERA.The White Sox have been looking at the future since the All-Star break, if not before.On Friday they traded catcher Dioner Navarro to Toronto in exchange for a young minor league left-hander, Colton Turner.The White Sox activated former Tiger Alex Avila from the disabled list but instead of backing up Navarro, Avila will be behind Omar Narvaez.As we talked about, Chicago GM Rick Hahn said. Omar has done a nice job putting himself on the map playing a role here over the next few years. And this should likely give him a few more opportunities over the next four or five weeks to play on a regular basis.Chicago will bring up a third catcher for flexibility when rosters expand but he isnt likely to get many looks.There are some options in the pipeline, Hahn said. But certainly heading into this offseason, we are going to find a direction for 2017 and some answers for 2017 behind the plate.Chicago has lefty Chris Sale lined up to face Verlander in the series closeout Wednesday.He has thrown 120 pitches in each of his last two starts.
