Jerry Jones Says $100 Billion Gas Opportunity Takes Priority Over Cowboys’ Defense

With Dallas at 3-4-1 before the trade deadline, calls grow for a traditional general manager.

Overview

  • Jones told the Wall Street Journal there is a “$100 billion present value” in natural gas and said that is why he was on the phone rather than trying to fix the Cowboys’ defense.
  • He has invested heavily in Comstock Resources and has publicly promoted the East Texas natural gas play as his best investment.
  • Despite defensive struggles, Jones questioned whether a single move would change Dallas’ fortunes, saying the team is not one player away.
  • Newsweek, citing Fox SportsJay Glazer, reported the Cowboys explored trades for pass rushers Trey Hendrickson and Maxx Crosby ahead of the deadline.
  • Quarterback Dak Prescott said the remark could be “definitely frustrating” to fans, while media and fans renewed calls for Jones to hire a conventional GM.
