Fox’s Craig Carton, an NFL analyst, media personality, and host of The Carton Show, hinted that Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones would consider leaving the franchise soon.
At present, Jones is the owner of the NFL’s most valuable team: the Dallas Cowboys, according to Forbes, are valued at $9 billion. The New England Patriots, according to Forbes, are the next most valuable team at $7 billion.
According to Carton, the Dallas Cowboys’ and Jerry Jones’ approaches to free agency are indicative of
The way Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys handled free agency this offseason is one of the reasons Carton believes Jones will likely leave the team.
Although Jones has never been afraid to spend money as the Cowboys’ owner, according to Carton, he has been especially economical this offseason. Jones and the Cowboys were the only team not to make any changes in free agency on the opening day of the draft, despite their declaration that they were “all in.”
Jones and the Cowboys were the only teams not to sign a player from another team through the second day of free agency. They agreed to terms with linebacker Eric Kendricks on Wednesday, making their first move outside of re-signing players.
They were reportedly looking for a star running back, but rumors just revealed that they never got in touch with Derrick Henry, the former running back for the Tennessee Titans who signed a contract with the Baltimore Ravens.
In a USA Today piece, Jerry Jones explained his meaning when he declared they were going “all in.”
He remarked, “Your idea of what is ‘all in’ and mine might not be the same thing, but with this decision, I’m trying to win the games this year.” I’m fully committed to this year.
The definition of “we’re all in” is, in my opinion, the attention that is paid to the subtleties of where we are with the cap, where we are with our position in the draft, and where we are with our free agents.
Many supporters don’t think Carton’s rumors that Jerry Jones is selling the Dallas Cowboys are true.
NFL fans frequently cast doubt on Carton’s reliability as a source, and this situation is no exception. After serving time in prison for a multimillion-dollar fraud, Carton’s reputation was damaged. After serving three and a half years in jail, he had to repay about $5 million in compensation.
In an Associated Press piece, Carton’s attorney, Derrelle Janey, stated that Carton is lucky to be allowed to pursue his career as a television personality.
According to Janey, “most criminal defendants don’t have the opportunity to go back to a place where they’re back at the beginning.” “With the grace of God, Mr. Carton is fortunate to be in a position where he can start over.”
Whether it’s because of his prison sentence or his repeated loud statements, many fans don’t think what he says about Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys is accurate.
