In May, Dallas mayor Eric Johnson tweeted his belief that the city deserves a second NFL team along with the Cowboys.
“We are about to pass the Chicago metro and become the #3 metro in the US, which would make us the largest US metro WITHOUT 2 teams,” he wrote. “Football is king here. Dallas needs an expansion team and we would be able to sustain 2 NFL teams better than LA or NY.”
Well, on Wednesday, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones shot down that possibility. Jones told Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News that Dallas will not be getting a second football team regardless of what the mayor thinks.
