A former Cowboys player criticises Jerry Jones for his lack of class

Ross Tucker is fed up.

In terms of the Dallas CowboysDallas Cowboys‘

future course, Jerry Jones and the team

are now preparing for what looks to be

a crucial 2024–25 NFL season.

Jones is the team’s owner and has long been

associated with all things Cowboys, but

regrettably, because of the team’s postseason

struggles, that association hasn’t been as

favourable in recent years.

Jones has garnered a reputation for himself as

being one of the most involved and passionate

owners in the game, but that hasn’t stopped some

of the Cowboys’ former players from criticizing

him over the years, including former offensive

lineman Ross Tucker, who recently took to X,

formerly Twitter, to point to a noteworthy

example of Jones’ alleged cheapness in how he

ran the franchise. “My teams didn’t pay for

massages. In response to a recording from the

Ross Tucker podcast in which former New York

Giants player Darren Waller applauded the

manner that team offered players access to

everything essential for their job for free, Ross

remarked, “Hell, the Cowboys payroll deducted

for lunch.” Jerry Jones is among the 140

wealthiest individuals in the world with an

estimated net worth of over $14 billion,

according to Forbes. It is quite unlikely, to put it

mildly, that he would forbid players from eating

free at the team’s facilities.

Can the Cowboys put it together this year?

The Cowboys have been knocking on the door of

real postseason success for quite some time now

but have still found ways to fall flat on their faces

in the biggest moments over the last couple

seasons. In the NFC divisional round in 2023, Dak

Prescott and the offence suffered greatly in a

road loss to the San Francisco 49ers that was

relatively close but ultimately very

disappointing. Then, this past season, Prescott

suffered once more, albeit not nearly as much as

the Cowboys’ defence, which destroyed the

squad and handed them their first home loss of

the season at the worst possible time by making

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love

appear like a true superstar. All things

considered, there is no denying that the Cowboys

are among the better teams in the league and

have the ability to accomplish great things, but

talking the talk and actually carrying it through

are two different things.

In any case, Jerry Jones might instill a bit better

morale around the organization by using a small

percentage of his incomprehensible wealth to

grab his players some sandwiches.
