Jerry Jones is a risk taker, that's a fact. So we all know he is watching closely to see how well his latest big risk pans out, read here. 

Owner Jerry Jones, who admittedly took a chance on Jones because he believes he can be the difference in what is potentially a Super Bowl season in Dallas, acknowledges there are no guarantees. But he said he likes what he has seen from Adam Jones so far.

"Yes," Jerry Jones said emphatically when asked if Adam Jones has done every thing right to this point.

"He is very committed. He is very committed physically and mentally. He is smart. He recognizes his challenge and he is really doing well."

Adam Jones recently announced that he no longer wants to be called "Pacman," a nickname he was given by his mother as an infant, because of the negativity associated with the moniker. Jerry Jones knows that the nickname did not cause Adam Jones to be arrested six times since 2005. He also knows that distancing himself from the name won’t keep Adam Jones out of trouble in Dallas.

But he said it’s another of example of the suspended cornerback having his heart and mind in the right place.

"He has thought it out," Jerry Jones said. "It’s meaningful to him to talk about it. The fact that he is addressing things like that is a step, a sign. For him to address it shows me he’s thinking about it. When you are trying real hard and see things as issues, our fans ought to look at that as a sign that he is thinking about it and getting it."

Just keep him focused on football and make sure he's got plenty of stuff to do at Valley Ranch Jerry!

Sounds like Deion is keeping up his end of the bargain as well by making sure he spends time with Pacman doing some fishing...

"He was telling me he was so tired of Deion catching more fish than him that he asked a friend of mine if he knew a pro fisherman who could give him some tips," Jerry Jones recalled fondly. "He was so proud that he called me and told me that he out-fished Deion. He is a competitor. He caught a big fish in the deciding catch in the competition and called me to tell me about it. That was a big deal to him."

Thanks Deion!
