NFL World Is Puzzled By Jerry Jones’ Tuesday Decision – AthlonSports.com

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has never been one to pass up the opportunity to entertain.

So when Jones and his son Stephen Jones canceled their scheduled radio interviews with 105.3 The Fan in Dallas this week, it raised some eyebrows around the NFL.

Following the Cowboys’ 19-12 loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, the younger Jones canceled his interview with the team’s flagship station on Monday. Jerry Jones followed suit Tuesday. During the season, Jerry Jones appeared on the station every Tuesday and Friday.

This isn’t the first time that Jerry Jones has canceled a radio appearance following a season-ending loss. After the 49ers knocked the Cowboys out of the playoffs a year ago, he canceled an interview in order to try to convince defensive coordinator Dan Quinn to return to the team’s coaching staff.

Charean Williams of ProFootballTalk speculates that his motives this year might be similar. Quinn has been interviewed by several NFL teams about their head coaching vacancies, including the Arizona Cardinals, which are reportedly flying him to Phoenix for a second interview on Tuesday.
