Owner, President & General Manager of the Dallas Cowboys; Subject of Netflix's "America's Team: The Gambler and his Cowboys"
Jerry Jones Biography
Jerry Jones is a businessman, entrepreneur, and sports executive best known as the owner, president, and general manager of the Dallas Cowboys of the National Football League (NFL). Born in Los Angeles and raised in North Little Rock, Arkansas, Jones played college football at the University of Arkansas, where he was a co-captain of the 1964 national championship team. His early career began in the oil and gas industry, where he built a successful business empire that provided the foundation for his later ventures in professional sports.
In 1989, Jones purchased the Dallas Cowboys for $140 million and quickly made bold changes, including hiring Jimmy Johnson as head coach and reshaping the team’s leadership. His aggressive management style paid off, as the Cowboys won three Super Bowl titles in the 1990s and became one of the most valuable sports franchises in the world. Under his ownership, Jones has maintained a hands-on role, serving as both president and general manager, a dual responsibility rare in the NFL.
Beyond the football field, Jones has been a driving force in expanding the Cowboys’ brand and the NFL’s reach. He spearheaded the construction of AT&T Stadium, a state-of-the-art sports and entertainment venue, and has played a significant role in negotiating lucrative television contracts that have reshaped the league’s financial landscape. His business acumen has made the Cowboys a global brand and positioned them among the most profitable teams in professional sports. In 2025, Jones was featured in the Netflix docuseries "America's Team: The Gambler and his Cowboys."
