Denzel Washington, a longtime Dallas Cowboys fan, has criticized Jerry Jones for poor management that has kept the team from achieving success for nearly 30 years.

The Dallas Cowboys fanbase is not happy at all with Jerry Jones‘ managerial skills. Denzel Washington is one of them, as the world-renowned actor has slammed the owner over his controversial decisions.

In NFL history, the Cowboys are regarded as one of the most iconic franchises. However, the past three decades have been far from great, with their last Super Bowl victory coming in 1996.

The club has had several star-studded rosters, but success keeps eluding Dallas. Many fans believe the main person responsible for their struggles is Jerry Jones, and Denzel Washington has now joined his critics.

Jerry Jones can’t seem to reduce the amount of haters he has. The Cowboys owner has not made the best decisions recently, and fans are growing increasingly desperate about it.

One crucial aspect is that Jerry Jones is currently the only owner in the NFL who is also a general manager. Fans think this situation has had a negative impact on the team, and Denzel Washington is one of them.

The legendary American actor is a longtime fan of the Cowboys. He witnessed the team’s most successful era, but also the ongoing struggles of their current era.

Denzel Washington believes Jerry Jones’ role as both owner and general manager has pushed sporting success to a secondary priority.

The actor thinks Jones is more focused on making money than achieving success on the field.

“I’ve been a Cowboys fan since the ’60s,” Denzel Washington said, per ESPN. “[Jones is] making it hard for me.

Not to be a fan, because I’m still a Cowboys fan, I’m still going to have the star on the side of the hat, but he ain’t thinking about us. He’s thinking about his pocket.”

Will Jerry Jones ever stop being the Cowboys general manager?

As mentioned before, Jerry Jones is the only owner in the NFL who also serves as general manager.

This decision has been heavily criticized by fans, but it seems unlikely to change any time soon.

When Jerry Jones acquired the Cowboys in 1989, he decided to take over as the team’s general manager.

Despite the harsh criticism, he has said multiple times that he will not leave the position as long as he owns the club.
