Owing to his busy schedule, it seems like the Cowboys owner forgot to put Jimmy Johnson, the former coach of the team, on the Ring of Honor. There has been no update regarding this since Jones announced it on national television. Could this be because of the previous feud between these two?
The history between Jerry Jones and Jimmy Johnson
These two go long back. Jimmy Johnson coached the Dallas Cowboys for five seasons, from 1989 to 1993. Johnson led the Cowboys to two Super Bowl victories before leaving the franchise because of Jones and his bitter relationship.

Since then, the duo, who once were great friends, couldn’t repair their relationship and moved forward. However, Jones, at the moment, has no update on the situation.
When asked about the update by Newy Scruggs, he had a rather unimpressive answer. He said, “I do not have time or who for the Ring of Honor today.” Seems like they could not bury the hatchet even after mending out their relationship. Johnson enthusiastically replied to a tweet, which talked about the promised details of Ring of Honor by Jerry Jones.
