Jerry Jones’ gamble with the Dallas Cowboys turned out great for him

Jerry Jones bought the Dallas Cowboys in 1989 for an estimated $140 million. Currently, the team value stands at $6.5 billion. During his early years of ownership of the Cowboys, the team achieved tremendous success. The team from Dallas won three Super Bowls in the 1990s. However, since 1996, one can see a decline in its winning streak.

They haven’t won a single Super Bowl since then. It is one of the major concerns for the franchise, but it doesn’t stop their economic growth. Due to Jones’ popularity and the brand name of the Cowboys, the franchise is ever-evolving.

They would hope to win another Super Bowl soon, as currently, they have a pretty good team to make a run at it.
