Jerry Jones, the proprietor of the Dallas Cowboys, refutes rumors that the head coach of the team could be fired if he fails to qualify for the Super Bowl.
The fact that Jones refused to make a public commitment regarding the return of Coach Mike McCarthy for the upcoming season caused some surprise.
