"He acts every week": NFL fans get their jokes off as Jerry Jones features in Landman

Jerry Jones' resume keeps expanding. Besides being a wildly successful billionaire entrepreneur, sports team owner and general manager, he can add actor to his resume as well. The billionaire owner of the Dallas Cowboys recently starred in the Sunday episode of the drama series "Landman."

In the video of his part, which went viral on social media, he dishes out sage advice to Jon Hamm's character, who is in a hospital bed hooked onto a machine.

"You're gonna be sitting here sometime in the future, laying here sometime in the future ... and more than likely your children and family are gonna be there because they're your children and your family," Jones says in his cameo role. "But you could have them there because they're the people you spent your life with."

NFL fans reacted on X (formerly, Twitter). Some reacted positively saying that Jerry Jones surprised them with his great acting, while many took shots at his struggling career as the owner and general manager of "America's Team."

One fan said that he had been engaged in acting before as he put on a character every time he speaks to the media after a Cowboys game.

"he acts every week for the cameras."

Another fan also said that acting was nothing new to him:

"I mean he has pretended to be football expert for 35 years lol"

Other fans also chimed in with jokes about his acting performance.

"He’s been pretending to be a good GM for over 30 years," one fan said.

"Really?? I mean he’s made Cowboy fans believe they were gonna win the Super Bowl for 30 years. That’s amazing acting," another remarked.

"Why, he's been acting like he knows how to run a football team😂," one fan said.

"The dude nailed it with some big hitters in the room," another fan praised Jerry Jones.

Jerry Jones makes his future with the Cowboys clear

After the Cowboys' season finale against the Washington Commanders, when hounded by reporters, he made it clear that he was not going to relinquish his position as the general manager of the Cowboys.

Fans were not supportive of his decision for Mike McCarthy to stay on as the Cowboys coach. However, with the Cowboys' 2024 season finished, they're hopeful that the upcoming offseason and draft will help turn their fortunes around.
