BREAKING: Jerry Jones Frustrated with Cowboys’ 2025 Performance — Signals Openness to Major Roster Moves to Spark Change

Jones Voices Frustration with Cowboys’ Start — Trade Options Now on the Table

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones admitted he’s far from satisfied with the team’s performance this season, and he’s open to shaking up the roster ahead of the trade deadline.

After the team’s loss in Denver dropped the squad to a 3-4-1 record, Jones made no attempt to hide his disappointment. “I am not happy at all with winning three ball games. At all,” he said. NBC Sports+2Yardbarker+2

No Impulse Moves — Decisions Will Be On Merits

Jones emphasized that while he’s willing to explore trade avenues, any move would have to make sense for the short term and long term. “If I saw a proposition for us to help this team … no matter what this score was today, then I would look at it on the merits of helping this team,” he said.

He added that the loss to the Broncos will not automatically trigger a rash decision. “Today would not affect a decision on trading for a player.” Bleacher Report+1

Ammo for Moves — But No Confirmed Shopping Spree

While Jones said the Cowboys are open to roster upgrades, he stopped short of saying the team is actively shopping players. “Not now, no,” he responded when asked if he anticipated shipping anyone out before the deadline. NBC Sports+1
That said, Dallas does have trade leverage — including valuable draft picks — that could allow them to be active if the right deal appears. NBC Sports

What This Means for the Season

For a franchise with championship aspirations, Jones’s comments underscore that patience may be running thin. The message is clear: mediocrity isn’t acceptable. Moves could come, but only if they improve the team’s trajectory.
