The Dallas Cowboys, sitting at 3-4-1 with one of the worst defenses in football, aren’t off to the best of starts in 2025.
Another one of Cowboys owner Jerry Jones’ major investments, the natural gas company Comstock Resources, seems to be a different story.
The company told the Wall Street Journal that it is on the verge of a major natural gas breakthrough in rural east Texas, according to a recent article. Jones, who has reportedly invested more than $1 billion in Comstock, is so bullish on these prospects he took some time away from football to talk natural gas.
“There’s $100 billion present value with gas out there,” he told the Journal in an interview. “That’s why I’m talking to you on the telephone rather than trying to fix our defense with the Dallas Cowboys.”

Cowboys fans would likely prefer Jones, who is also the team’s general manager, focus on football, especially with the NFL’s trade deadline looming on November 4.
