Tntpal,
According to the landmark Supreme Court case Burdick v. United States (1915), accepting a pardon "carries an imputation of guilt and acceptance of a confession of it."
A quick search produced the following:

Burdick v. United States (Wikipedia)

Although the Supreme Court's opinion stated that a pardon carries "an imputation of guilt and acceptance of a confession of it,"[2] this was part of the Court's dictum for the case.[4] Whether the acceptance of a pardon constitutes an admission of guilt by the recipient is disputed. In Lorance v. Commandant, USDB (2021) the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that "there is no confession and Lorance does not otherwise lose his right to petition for habeas corpus relief for his court-martial conviction and sentence. The case was remanded for further action not inconsistent with the court’s opinion."[5]
