FRISCO, Texas — That Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has been gunning for NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell since the Ezekiel Elliott suspension is no secret.

Jones believes Goodell misled him into thinking there would be no suspension for Elliott and considers it an unforgivable breach of trust, which was first reported by the Star-Telegram.

That stance was backed up Friday by an explosive article that will appear in the Dec. 4 issue of “ESPN The Magazine,” in which an angry Jones promised to make Goodell pay after learning of the suspension.

The Star-Telegram has also confirmed that an angry Jones threatened Goodell’s job initially.

Jones has long had a problem with the power of the commissioner and believes now is the time to address those issues. This is also part of his reasoning for trying to hold up a proposed contract extension for Goodell.

Jones was not asked about threatening Goodell’s job during his radio show Friday on 105.3 FM, but he addressed the issues with the commissioner’s contract extension.

“The one great power the owners have to contribute and make and do things differently, which every organization has to keep up with the times and do things differently,” Jones said. “The one great time, because we give our commissioner such power, the one great time the owners have their biggest input is when you are either first-time hiring him or extending him.

“And when you do it in such a way as you don’t have any input over the issues, you disenfranchised them from what you want them to do.”

Jones said he wants to slow down the process of giving Goodell an extension, considering that he has 18 months left on his contract. He also wants the extension to be approved by all of 32 owners and not just the six-man compensation committee, which was actually given the power to do so by the owners in a unanimous vote in March.

Jones, however, said he believes things have changed since then, and that requires the situation to be examined more closely.
