Jerry Jones doesn't see the Cowboys making any more coaching changes this season

NEW YORK (AP) — Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones does not anticipate making any more coaching changes this season. Additions to the roster are another story.

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has no plans to make additional coaching changes this season, according to a statement made at the NFL's annual fall meeting. The recent hiring of Mike Pettine, a defensive assistant with a background involving the team's coordinators, was seen as strategic and unique. Jones believes that Pettine's background, along with his desire to help the team, made him a significant addition.

However, the Cowboys are struggling defensively, currently ranked 30th out of 32 teams. Jones attributes this mainly to tactical issues rather than lack of effort during recent games. While he sees room for improvement, he remains optimistic about the team's potential. The team is 2-4 after losing consecutive games where they scored a combined 29 points.

Jones is open to making personnel moves ahead of the Nov. 10 trade deadline, emphasizing that any changes would be aimed at helping the team. Despite his frustration with the current record, Jones does not consider selling the team, unless a deal he cannot refuse comes along. The team's position in the NFC East, where the New York Giants are leading the division, adds uncertainty to their prospects.

Jones sees promise and opportunity, both in terms of their talent and the adjustments they can make, particularly those done during the spring.
