Polarisiert immer wieder: Cowboays-Boss Jerry Jones

Overview

  • The NFL fined Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones $250,000 after video showed him making an obscene gesture during a 37-22 win over the New York Jets.
  • Jones said the gesture was unintentional and that he meant to give a thumbs-up, and an NFL spokesman said he is considering an appeal.
  • The Arizona Cardinals fined head coach Jonathan Gannon $100,000 for his sideline outburst toward running back Emari Demercado in a 21-22 loss to the Tennessee Titans.
  • Video from the game shows Gannon appearing to strike Demercado on the arm during the confrontation, and Gannon later apologized to the player and the team.
  • The league said it will take no further action regarding Gannon after the team’s sanction, underscoring the split between league and club discipline.
