Jerry Jones is trying to explain himself.
A report earlier in the week spoke about how crazy the NFL owners meeting got. as Jerry Jones issued a NSFW warning to Robert Kraft, and the Dallas Cowboys owner has all but confirmed that it actually did happen.
The NFL owners on Tuesday held their fall meetings in New York this week. The owners discussed a possible new contract for commissioner Roger Goodell as one of their agenda items. According to ESPN, Jones was not about Roger Goodell getting any more money, while the New England Patriots owner was among those supporting a new deal for the commissioner. Things apparently got heated between the two owners, at which point Jones told Kraft:
âDonât fâ with me.â
During a Friday appearance on 105.3 The Fan, Jones was asked if the report is accurate.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was asked on @1053thefan about the report of him telling Patriots owner Robert Kraft, "Don't f–k with me" at recent owners meeting:
"In this particular case, it's probably accurate that I did express myself in probably a way that's not in good taste."

Jonesâ issue has everything to do with Goodellâs contract. ESPN was told the 80-year-old wants Goodellâs contract to be bonus-based, with clear definitions about the financial marks Goodell must meet in order to receive his bonuses. Jones seemed to confirm that’s what he believes should be in his contract. Though he feels Goodell has done an âoutstandingâ job as commissioner.
Jerry Jones: "Let me be real clear, I'm a real supporter of Roger Goodell as our commissioner. I think he's done outstanding…(I had) an issue with the structure regarding how we were going to address the commissioner or his successor. (It was) not (about) my support for Roger." https://t.co/JKbQ1OpMnG

Kraft and Jones are billionaires, and very rarely do they hear the word NO.
Despite the exchange there is said to be no bad blood between the two owners. Billionaire problems are hard to relate to.
