No NFL owner is under fire these days as much as Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys, but star linebacker Micah Parsons has tried to put him in a better light.
Micah Parsons’ Cowboys have been one of football’s biggest disappointments this season with a 3-5 record. With quarterback Dak Prescott out multiple weeks because of a hamstring injury, the Cowboys are likely on their way to missing the postseason for the first time in four years.
As the owner of “America’s Team”, Jones has always been a popular target of criticism. While most owners of pro sports teams hide from the media, Jerry loves the attention and enjoys speaking to reporters on a weekly basis. Even when his team isn’t doing well.
Amid all the backlash Jones has received in this miserable season, Parsons went great lengths to paint a better picture of the Cowboys owner.
Per Jon Machota of The Athletic, Micah Parsons shared a story about Jones picking him up on the road so they could attend Super Bowl 58 together in Las Vegas, Nevada last February:
“Side of the road. I was outside of the Wynn hotel and Jerry walks out of the Wynn hotel and goes: ‘Micah! Where are you going? … Are you going to the game?’ I said, ‘Nah.’ He said, ‘You want to come?’ I was like, ‘Yeah.’ He brought me to the game. I was like, ‘Cool.’ “We got a chance to talk for a few hours. It goes to show you how generous and caring he is. He broke me down about life and football and how he sees the players, how he sees the team and where he wants to go with us. The fact that he did that with me, it goes to show that our relationship is growing and he trusts me. “
Parsons was also asked for his thoughts about an owner being close with his players. The former gave it a thumbs up and praised Jones for having his “heart in” the right place:
“I think it’s a good thing. Because honestly, a lot of owners don’t care. Jerry cares about how comfortable we are, he cares about this facility. When you walk in the building it says, ‘It’s a privilege not a right to wear the star.’ I think when you got an owner like that, actually cares and actually wants to be involved in this process, instead of like, ‘This is a moneymaker, this is about money to me.’ His heart is in it. “And when someone’s heart is in it, think about family, family doesn’t always do the right things or make the right decisions, but you still love them because they care. They actually care about the significance about what they’re doing.”
The Cowboys will try to improve to 4-5 when they host the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.
Micah Parsons Shares The Friendly Side Of Jerry Jones
Love or hate Jones, there’s no questioning that he usually takes care of his players…at least on a financial level. Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb were awarded lucrative extensions this offseason, and Parsons will surely get a new deal worth $100-plus million before his rookie deal expires.
Suspicious NFL Fans Are Accusing Deshaun Watson Of Using A Burner Account From The Locker Room At Halftime To Defend Himself During Browns’ Loss To Raiders

In the wake of quarterback Deshaun Watson’s miserable season-opening outing against the Dallas Cowboys, Browns fans speculated if he had a burner account to defend himself.
Internet detectives zoned in on the X account of one Leroy Bickerstaff (@LeroyBickers4), who has posted glowing remarks about Watson despite a disappointing start to the season.
That was then, and this is now.
It appears that fans have found a separate account that is now being linked to Deshaun Watson.
The account, @VPritchs, suddenly began defending the Browns quarterback during halftime of Sunday’s game, and many accused the quarterback of running the page and tweeting from the locker room.

The Cleveland Browns had multiple opportunities in the fourth quarter to rally for a win for the second straight week, but they ultimately fell short.
Deshaun Watson said to blame himself after Cleveland blew an early 10-0 lead and lost 20-16 to the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday.
The loss dropped the team to 1-3 on the year.
Deshaun Watson Is Once Again Dealing With More Off The Filed Trouble Amid Rough Season
Deshaun Watson and the Browns lost yet again on Sunday, Falling to the Raiders, 20-16, in Las Vegas.
He finished the game by completing 24 of 32 passes for 176 yards, a touchdown, and an interception.
Watson’s woes on the field can also be attributed to what he is dealing with off the field, as another woman is accusing him of sexual assault stemming from an alleged October 2020 incident in a new lawsuit filed earlier this month.
He was previously suspended for 11 games in 2022 and fined $5 million by the league amid accusations of sexual misconduct by massage therapists.
Twenty-three of the 24 civil lawsuits filed against Watson were settled in 2022, according to ESPN.
Travis Kelce Used One Word To Describe His Whirlwind Relationship With Taylor Swift

Travis Kelce is proud to have girlfriend Taylor Swift by his side, and he doesn’t mind that the whole world is watching.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been dating since at least September 2023 when she shocked everybody by showing up to Arrowhead Stadium. The move came months after Kelce first publicly expressed interest in Swift, after attending one of her concerts and failing to send a friendship bracelet to her with his number on it.
Travis Kelce knows just how obsessed the world is with his relationship.
“I’m very aware,” Kelce said when asked whether he understands the “impact” his romance with Taylor Swift was having on the NFL.
“Obviously, this is mostly because Taylor’s in my life now and we got her [to be] part of Chiefs Kingdom,” he explained in a resurfaced interview with sports reporter Laura Okmin ahead of the Super Bowl.
“And sure enough, that brought an entire entourage of human beings who just love to support her and love to support everything that she’s about.”
He used an incredible word to describe their relationship.
“With that being said, I do, you know, have a guarded approach to it,” he explained before Super Bowl 58. “But at the same time, I know what me and Taylor have is special, so I get [the interest].”
Taylor Swift was spotted at 13 of Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs football games this past season, first popping up in a box at Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri on Sept. 24, 2023. The team won 10 of the 13 games at which she’s been in attendance.
That also included the team winning playoff games over the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills, Baltimore Ravens, and then the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl.
Kelce finished the Super Bowl with nine receptions for 93 yards, including a crucial catch in overtime.
The 34-year-old slowed down slightly in 2023, finishing with 93 catches for 984 yards and five touchdowns. It should be noted he did miss two games, Week 1 due to injury and Week 17 as he chose to sit out with the Chiefs not playing for anything.
