Cowboys owner Jerry Jones faces retirement calls after Week 1 loss

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has been urged to consider retirement following the team's 28-20 defeat to the New York Giants in their 2026-27 NFL season opener. Asante Samuel, a former teammate of Tom Brady and a two-time Super Bowl champion, criticized the Cowboys' lack of success over the years despite substantial investment in players. Samuel described the team as 'soft' and undisciplined, pointing to a need for a significant change. His message emphasizes that a hard reset for the Cowboys must start with Jones relinquishing control.
