A Hall of Fame inductee criticized Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones during an appearance at the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio, on August 7, 2026, stating that Jones "will not hoist that Lombardi Trophy again" and accusing him of not having a business plan as the team sits at a 3-5 record this season.
The remarks were reported by Pranay Parab for College Sports Network on November 6, 2026. The Hall of Fame event also featured Pro Football Hall of Fame president Jim Porter and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell alongside Jones.
