Stephen Jones Reveals Thoughts On Cowboys' Legends Day

Stephen Jones Reveals Thoughts On Cowboys' Legends Day originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer wants to change the culture at The Star, and to do that, he has to do things differently. Advertisement While he's only been at his new post for a few months, Schottenheimer is already making big changes to how the Cowboys do things both on and off the field. One such thing that the first-time head coach has done was to incorporate a Cowboys "Legends Day" as OTAs got underway at The Star. Several former players, including Tony Casillas and Michael Irvin, were glowing in what they saw in the meeting rooms and on the practice field from both Schotty and his playing group. And COO Stephen Jones thinks it should be a regular thing the franchise does. 'I thought it was outstanding,' Jones said. 'Our guys really embraced it, it's great to see them, and a lot of those guys have had a lot of success wearing the Cowboy Star. I think they really enjoyed what Coach Schottenheimer is doing with these players, and really thought it was a great event, and we're going to do it again. Advertisement "I think everybody loved it and the guys who missed it, like Troy [Aikman] he called up and said if I weren't in Europe I'd have been there and hopefully next time we'll have even more. We love having those guys back.'

Mandatory Credit: Jayne Kamin-Oncea-Imagn Images Jayne Kamin-Oncea-Imagn Images It might seem like a trivial thing to do, but Schottenheimer getting the players of today mixing with the players of yesterday to help build that connection, because as the head coach stated, they are a part of the Cowboys family. Times are well and truly changing at The Star, and it appears to be for the better right now. Granted, that doesn't mean it will translate into wins, but the vibe and energy at practice and in the meeting rooms are noticeably different from previous years. Advertisement Schotty wants to build the best culture in professional sports, and while that's quite the lofty goal, he's off to a good start with "Legends Day," showing that not only is he talking the talk with his desire to establish a new culture, but he's walking the walk, too. And Stephen Jones approves. Related: Is Coaching 'Familiarity' Key To Unlocking Cowboys' Deuce Vaughn?

WATCH: Kyle Larson Flips Car in Huge Crash at Plymouth

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. NASCAR hero Kyle Larson participated in the World of Outlaws series at the 1/3-mile Plymouth Dirt Track event when a supposed technical problem on the rear axle "launched" his car into the catch fence as he was drifting sideways. A video on X shows him chasing race leader Rico Abreu at high speed on Lap 7. But as soon as his car approached Turn 1, the rear wheel came loose, causing his car to flip and catapult straight into the catch fence. The car then struck the ground sideways, prompting a swift response from the emergency team. Fortunately, Larson was declared safe after the incident. Speaking after the huge crash on X, he said: Kyle Larson, driver of the #5 Chevrolet, prepares to practice for the NASCAR Cup Series Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway on May 31, 2025 in Lebanon, Tennessee. Kyle Larson, driver of the #5 Chevrolet, prepares to practice for the NASCAR Cup Series Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway on May 31, 2025 in Lebanon, Tennessee."I think the right rear, axle or something broke. "Just kinda launched me and along for the ride. Bummer, I felt really good, pacing Rico there, finally catching traffic, getting racing there. "Glad I'm okay. Big hits but all-in-all, feel fine." Hard Crash for Kyle Larson tonight at Plymouth. Fortunately, Larson was able to walk away from this one. — Toby Christie (@Toby_Christie) June 7, 2025 Larson has been racing in the World of Outlaws series since September 10, 2011. The 2021 NASCAR champion hit the 30-race wins milestone last year at Federated Auto Parts Raceway in Pevely. This shows his love for racing is not just limited to stock car racing. Last month, Larson attempted The Double by racing in the NASCAR Cup Series Coca-Cola 600 and the Indy 500 on the same day. This was his second attempt at securing the legendary feat, but unfortunately, he failed after crashing in the Indy 500 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Newsweek Sports reported his statement after the race. He said: "It was a bit crazy there on the start. "I got tight behind Takuma [Sato]. I was really close to him and I think I got loose and kind of got all over the place. Yeah, so I spun. Just hate that I got a little too eager there on the restart and caused that crash. So, hate it for everybody that also got caught up in it. "Just bummed out, so I'll try to get over this quickly and get on to Charlotte, and just forgot about it." The race start was also delayed by 45 minutes due to wet weather. When Larson was asked if that was on his mind, considering that he had another race to participate in, he said: "I don't know. I wasn't too focused on that." He added: "When I'm sitting there for 45 minutes, it was on my mind, but once we got racing, I wasn't really worried about that."
