Miami is 7-9 this year entering the final game of the season.<\/p>\n<p>One person who expects any kind of success from Aikman is Cowboys owner\/GM Jerry Jones, who was asked on Friday on 105.3 &#8220;The Fan&#8221; how Aikman would help the Dolphins.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You&#8217;re talking to the wrong person because Troy Aikman is associated with my time in the NFL. I hardly to know how to say NFL without saying Troy,&#8221; Jones said. &#8220;I&#8217;m so proud of him and what he did with the Cowboys, proud of what he is in the NFL. He&#8217;s had a great career no matter how you count it. I&#8217;ve always appreciated him having him on my side, our side. Obviously he has to have an even hand with his job now as a broadcaster. I will say that he is certainly capable of helping any team in whatever capacity it is.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Miami Dolphins will seek Troy Aikman&#8217;s advice as they look to hire a new general manager in&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":650433,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2066],"tags":[230,229,257,2461,7,417,1900,16024,59623,6,16154],"class_list":{"0":"post-650432","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-dallas-cowboys","8":"tag-cowboys","9":"tag-dallas","10":"tag-dallas-cowboys","11":"tag-dallascowboys","12":"tag-football","13":"tag-news-all-news","14":"tag-news-nick-eatman","15":"tag-news-past-present","16":"tag-news-regular-season-2025","17":"tag-nfl","18":"tag-troy-aikman"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115830691165183840","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/650432","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=650432"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/650432\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/650433"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=650432"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=650432"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=650432"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
