Jones talked at further length about Garrett, saying that he is a “great leader,” that “no one understands the game more,” and that “the players respect him.” Jones also said of Garrett that “we have had a lot of great offenses here under Jason. We are moving the ball good this year for the most part.” On Tuesday, Jones shot down speculation about Sean Payton joining the Cowboys, saying on 105.3 The Fan of Payton’s impending free agency, “that has nothing to do with us.”
Jones also responded in the affirmative when asked if the 3-5 Cowboys are underachieving. “We had higher expectations than this,” Jones said. “We have to play better. We have to finish.”
