In the open letter, a Dallas pastor criticized Dallas Cowboys’ owner Jerry Jones and leadership staff over his controversial stance forbidding players to protest during the national anthem. Rev. Dr. Frederick D. Haynes, III published the letter to Jones this week and his church, Friendship West Baptist, published a video of the pastor reading the letter. Haynes explained, ”Number one, Jerry Jones, I think, with his brilliance as a business person, his success as the owner of the Dallas Cowboys, America’s team, unfortunately, has missed the meaning of America. I think he’s been trying to make a point but missed the point.” The Dallas Cowboys organization went on record, recently, saying not only would players be punished if they protested or stayed in the locker room during the anthem, they could even be fired.
