It appears that the fans are not celebrating a nice birthday for Jerry Jones. The billionaire has established himself as a common name throughout the NFL; world, but it appears that his time to bid adieu may have come. Many fans have demanded from him to resign as general manager, and it appears that these demands are at a peak despite his birthday.
For the unaware, Jerry Jones turned 82 today, which means he has been managing the Dallas Cowboys for more than 35 years now. Woah! That is actually pretty impressive. Throughout the years, the guy made good judgments, but it seems like with time his decisions’ are fumbling. The Cowboys have been inadequately managed for the past three to four seasons, which is why the team is unable to reach its full potential. The fans believe that if Jones steps down as GM, the team can be great again.
As a result, the hashtag #FireJerrytheGM is trending on X, and there are many remarks from fans there. One of the fans even suggested that Jerry should gift himself a new GM, “Get yourself a new GM as a birthday present.” Besides comments, some fans merely used the hashtag in their tweets to show their support for this movement, “#FireJerryTheGM“.
