Jerry Jones is in deep trouble. The veteran owner of the Dallas Cowboys has to go through a paternity test. In 2022, Alexandra Davis, the legal correspondent of a congressman claimed that Jones was his father and sought legal help in the court. The court then ordered the veteran to go through a paternity test.

When Jones was asked about the possible DNA test, he declined to comment much since this is a legal issue and is subjected to the proceedings of the court. Jones did seem a bit hesitant while addressing the issue.

I don’t. Those are legal matters. I can’t talk about it right now to some degree. That work through, I expect much to be perceived better in the future.

Jerry Jones said

The case between Jerry Jones and Alexandra Davis has been doing rounds for the last few years. Davis claimed that Jones and his mother got into a relationship in the ’90s. He also promised to help with all financial support for the upbringing of the girl. However, it was conditional from Jones’ end as he told Davis’ mother not to disclose his identity. Her mother did that for long.

However, Davis decided to break the condition and come up with maternity claims. She also accused Jones of defaming her.

Jerry Jones has a lot to deal with now

Jerry Jones is presently going through a lot. Ahead of the 2024-25 season, he has to strengthen the squad. Last season, the Cowboys did perform great in the regular season but failed in the postseason. This time, if they have to achieve success then the team needs to scrutinise the mistakes that they made. In addition, with the departure of Dan Quinn, they need to bring a good DC.

Amid these, his personal problems are also brewing. The court has also set up a hearing of the sexual harassment case that he was accused of. The ongoing hearing will continue this year.

It is to be seen whether these things have an impact on the success of the Cowboys. After back-to-back disappointments over the last two seasons, the team will try to remove the playoff curse in the coming season.
