After watching the Dallas Cowboys start off the 2026 NFL season with a loss to the New York Giants, one former “America’s Team” star is taking shots at team owner Jerry Jones.
Pro Football Hall of Fame receiver Terrell Owens, who spent two of his 15 years in the NFL with Dallas, took time on his newly launched “Get To The Point” podcast to speak on the 83-year-old Jones, whom he believes is too worried about headlines and keeping his franchise relevant than actually winning a Super Bowl like he says he wants.
In fact, he invoked President Donald Trump while discussing Jones’ mindset.

“At the end of the day, he’s not worried about wins and losses,” Owens said of Jones. “Fans out there, it’s not about wins and losses for him. It’s about the bottom line and the bottom dollar. As long as you guys keep buying Dallas Cowboy merch, he’s raking in dollars. As long as he’s putting a decent product on the field and giving you guys hope that every year is the year, you guys keep buying it.
“He’s just like Donald Trump – he’ll just say anything, and a lot of people are eating it up and think it’s going to be true. Stop it.”
Owens continued by saying that Jones is selling Cowboys fans “a fantasy,” and even claimed that the longtime owner is showing signs of “narcissism” as he has noted many times he won’t ever relinquish his power atop the Cowboys’ organizational chart.

“Jerry Jones is really selling all these Cowboy fans. He’s selling them a fantasy. He’s selling them a dream,” Owens said. “Jerry, I cannot deny, he is a great salesman. He needs to relinquish some of the control that he has with the team and allow some other people to step in place.”
To Owens’ point, Jones has taken the Cowboys to new heights since purchasing the team for $140 million in February 1989. Success quickly followed, as the Cowboys won the Super Bowl in 1993, 1994 and 1996, which restored the team’s previous glory after Dallas won Super Bowl VI (1972) and Super Bowl XII (1978) prior to Jones’ ownership.
But the Cowboys have not made it back to the Super Bowl since that 1996 win, and the supporters of “America’s Team” are desperate to see it happen. Each season, it feels the Cowboys have the chance to do so, but they’ve either fallen short in the playoffs, or worse, missed the postseason entirely.
However, the Cowboys remain one of the most valued teams in all of American sports since Jones purchased the club. According to Sportico, the team is valued at an estimated $15.5 billion if he were to sell it today. Forbes recently valued the franchise higher at $17 billion.
Either way, it’s the most valuable team in the NFL.

But is Jones too worried about that bottom line, as Owens mentioned, instead of winning? He did admit disappointment about how the season began in Week 1, but he said that the team remains “optimistic” for its playoff and Super Bowl chances in 2026.
