With the NFL draft just a few days away, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones decided to have some fun at the expense of his son, Stephen, as well as a former player.
“There’s a lot of talk in this business about who makes the call. Who actually makes the call,” Jerry said when discussing who actually makes the draft pick for the Cowboys. “Taco was Stephen’s call. [Micah] Parsons is my call.”
Taco Charlton was a defensive end for Dallas taken with the No. 28 pick in the 2017 NFL draft, but he never turned into a consistent starting-caliber player.
The DE saw the comments about him, and he took to Twitter to pretty much mock Jones.
Taco signed a four-year, $10.02 million contract with the Cowboys at the start of his NFL career. $7.73 million of that contract was guaranteed.

Charlton has played for four teams over the past five years. Last year he played for the Steelers, where he totaled 18 tackles and a 0.5 sack.
The former first-round pick will play for the New Orleans Saints this upcoming season.
