Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is ready to shorten the NFL's four-game preseason schedule in favor of 18 regular-season games and two preseason contests.
"I was a big advocate in the last negotiation. I made the presentation," Jones said, per Tim Cowlishaw of the Dallas Morning News. "You can see how I did."
Jones pointed to the revenue playing additional regular-season games could create for the players as one of his reasons for advocating the change.
"It would provide more than $1 billion to the players," Jones said.
