NFL coverage will look a lot different going forward as Fox Sports mainstay Jimmy Johnson announced his retirement on Monday. The well-wishes poured in for the former head coach and longtime analyst over the course of the day, and on Tuesday morning Jerry Jones joined the chorus.
Jones and Johnson have known each other for a very long time. They were teammates at Arkansas in college and Jones hired Johnson away from the University of Miami to replace Tom Landry after purchasing the Dallas Cowboys in the 1990s. Johnson, of course, led Dallas on a dynastic run and was inducted into the team's Ring of Honor in 2023.
