Jerry Not Thinking About Garrett's Contract

Jason Garrett is in the final year of his current deal with Dallas

Apparently, Jerry Jones is content to wait until after the season to revisit Jason Garrett’s contract status.

In fact, in an interview with 105.3-FM The Fan this week, Jones said that he hasn’t even been thinking about Garrett’s contract status. Garrett’s four-year deal runs out at year’s end.

“It’s really a non event for me, whether there is concern [from the outside] about it or not,” Jones said, via the Dallas Morning News. “I don’t mean to sound that way, but it hasn’t been a concern of mine and we haven’t made it a concern for the club this year. This talk about these contracts, no matter who it is that has a pending contract or one that’s coming up, that’s all for [media and fans] to talk about. That really has no impact on my day.”

Garrett has finished 8-8 in each of his three full seasons as a head coach to this point, and has come up just short of the playoffs in each of those. With a 7-3 record this season, Jones has been full of praise for Garrett, saying he is still improving as a head coach.

We’ll have to wait and see if this praise will translate to a new deal for Garrett.
