In the coming months, Cowboys owner Jerry
Jones and Roc Nation Sports founder Jay Z are
going to be seeing a lot of one another. Although Jones
reportedly wasn't
on board with the decision, Dez Bryant signed
with Roc Nation Sports recently, which means Jay Z is going to be
helping the star wide receiver negotiate his next contract with the Cowboys. So
more than a few eyebrows were raised last night were Jones and Jay Z were
spotted chatting at theGiants/Cowboys game in East Rutherford, N.J.
And just one question came to everyone's mind: What in the world were they
talking about?
As it turns out, nothing all that important. After the
Cowboys knocked off the Giants 31-28 late last night, Jones spoke with
reporters about his brief meeting with Jay Z. And when he was asked if Bryant's
contract came up during their discussion, Jones said it had not. Instead, he
joked that he had been trying to convince Jay Z to perform during the Eagles/Cowboys
gamein Dallas on Thanksgiving Day.
"I was working on a halftime deal with him for
Thanksgiving," Jones said, before admitting what the two had really talked
about. "No, it's good. He had just been to the stadium and entertained
there. He's outstanding."
Hmmm…That doesn't exactly sound like a guy who's taking Jay
Z's role as Bryant's agent too seriously. We'll have to wait and see how
"outstanding" Jones thinks Jay is once contract negotiations begin in
the offseason.
