"Saying that right in front of Django": Internet reacts as Jamie Foxx and Jerry Jones' viral live video sparks meme fest

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones recently commented about his players' physical attributes in a viral moment with Jamie Foxx, which garnered hilarious memes. Jerry was spotted on an Instagram Live with Jamie Foxx on September 21, where he could be seen and heard making NSFW comments about the players of his teams.

Jones and Foxx were discussing player dimensions, observing their running and jumping distances. The discussion turned elsewhere when Jones revealed that one of the players has an "eight and a half... d*ck."

Although Jamie immediately stopped the video, it went viral in no time. Once that happened, netizens took to X to react to the same thing. Some drew a parallel with Foxx’s movie Django Unchained, which was about plantation workers and slavery.

Some even said that Jones sounded like a plantation owner who was looking for a slave. Others even deemed this fit as the players of the Dallas Cowboys are all African Americans.

“Ironic that Jerry was saying that right in-front of Django”, an X user wrote.

Others also wrote comments related to the movie Django Unchained.

“Plantation talk. This the part some players tried telling us about”, another user wrote.

“On some plantation/slave owner sh*t. Ain't no f*cking way”, said another one.

“Is it not apparent that these people never ended slavery, yet simply found new ways to profit off melanin labor?” asked one netizen.

“Those owners look at Black men as meat, or objects... I still feel as if the NFL is a plantation”, commented one X user.

On the other hand, others commented on the video in general.

“These ni*gas be freaky”, commented one user.

“Jamie Foxx face is sending me. Why is he so calm ?!?!” another one asked.

“Now, whyyyyyy does he know thaaaat?!” another one questioned, sarcastically.

The Django Unchained actor Jamie Foxx recently joined the Dallas Cowboys' practice with Jerry Jones on Friday, September 21, before the Baltimore Ravens game. At one point, Foxx streamed live video from The Star on his Instagram while Jones discussed his squad.

The actor was showing the Cowboys owner to his side in the video. However, when Jerry commented about his players, Foxx abruptly stopped streaming.

Jones was seen praising one of his players in the video for "shutting down" a 5-foot-9.5, 210-pound man who can do a 40-yard dash in 4.41 seconds with "nine and three-inch hands." Jones then mentioned his "eight and a half-inch d*ck."

When Foxx first heard the comments, he was nodding and said, "uh huhhh," but after the comment, his expression changed into a complete panic, and the live video suddenly abruptly ceased.

However, it became viral and fans continued to post conflicting comments on social media. People on the X started making fun of him with several users laughing uncontrollably.

What is the movie Django Unchained about?

Django Unchained's core themes include justice, retaliation, and enslavement. It centers on Django (Jamie Foxx), a slave, who is trained to become a bounty hunter after being set free from his chains by Dr. King Schultz (Christoph Waltz), a German bounty hunter.

After their mission became successful and Schultz released Django, they set out to find the most wanted criminals in the South.

On their travels, they come across Django's long-lost wife (Kerry Washington) who was still a slave on the notorious plantation of the sinister Calvin Candie (Leonardo DiCaprio).
