One Team’s Executive Refuses To Join The NFL In Supporting Colin Kaepernick

Colin Kaepernick’s protest against police brutality during the national anthem sparked nationwide debate. While many NFL teams are now supporting Kaepernick’s cause, the Dallas Cowboys are divided on the issue.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell expressed regret for not addressing Kaepernick’s concerns earlier. He acknowledged the players’ right to draw attention to crucial issues and emphasized the need for understanding their intent.

However, the Dallas Cowboys, owned by Jerry Jones, face internal conflict. Stephen Jones, the team’s Executive Vice President, and Chief Operating Officer, differs from his father and Goodell in his stance on Kaepernick’s protest.

Stephen Jones has voiced his conservative values and does not support Goodell’s change of heart regarding the protests. While he acknowledges the diversity of opinions, he remains steadfast in his position.

The Cowboys now face a challenging period as they navigate the evolving landscape of football and societal changes brought about by movements like Black Lives Matter. Stephen Jones and his father must reconcile their differing perspectives to ensure the team’s alignment with the broader societal shift.

What’s your view on the Dallas Cowboys’ stance? Do you side with Stephen Jones or Jerry Jones? How do you envision a more inclusive future for football?
