Amid the backlash, Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer addressed the situation during an appearance on 105.3 The Fan. He said he understood why fans were frustrated but defended Jones’ commitment to winning, according to Cowboys beat writer Jon Machota of The Athletic.

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was asked about whether he gambles. The billionaire made a huge gamble when he bought the “Lone Star” in 1989, purchasing a franchise that lost money to make it one of the most valuable in the world of sports.

Jerry Jones went viral for essentially saying he values his gas business over football, leading to a delusional defense from head coach Brian Schottenheimer.

Jones: “Anybody that says I don’t focus on the Cowboys is just living in the moment of frustration, and I get that. And I’m frustrated too.”
