Football fans are teeing off on the Dallas Cowboys after executive vice president Stephen Jones revealed the team’s strategy for 2025 free agency.
Last year, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones promised that his team would have an “all-in” offseason approach following their ugly Wild Card Round playoff loss to the Green Bay Packers. Jones didn’t make a single blockbuster move via trade or free agency, however, even passing on two-time rushing champion Derrick Henry despite the latter’s wish to play in Dallas.
Speaking to reporters on Monday, Stephen Jones said that the Dallas Cowboys would be “selectively aggressive” in free agency when the market opens next month, per ESPN’s Todd Archer.

But let’s just say that fans aren’t at all buying Stephen’s promise, as social media had a field day calling his and Jerry’s bluff:
“Folks, it’s that magical time of the year when Cowboys fans get their annual dose of false hope, now available in extra strength 😂,” one fan remarked.

“Whatever. Didn’t Jerry say they we “all in” last year? The Jones hype machine is in full effect. They’ll do nothing, like always,” wrote a fan.

“Just like they were “all in” last year? As long as Jerry is the owner, nobody should be worried,” said a fan.
