Jerry Jones, who has owned the Dallas Cowboys since 1989, recently stated he doesn't have a succession plan, saying 'I don't have a succession plan, I don't. One day I just won't be here to toss my two cents in.' This claim contradicts NFL rules that mandate all teams provide a designated successor for owners who die or become incapacitated.
It's widely believed that Jones' son, Stephen, would take over the team leadership when Jerry steps down. The pair has a history of disagreements, most notably during the 2014 draft when Jerry wanted Johnny Manziel while Stephen successfully pushed for Zack Martin. esporist.org
