NFL: Dallas Cowboys Jerry Jones Resume Team Operations In The Star

KEY POINTS

The NFL has allowed employees to return to their respective team facilities provided they are in compliance with their state's COVID-19 guidelines
The Dallas Cowboys are among the first teams to open their doors again in The Star
Jerry Jones insists that social distancing and proper protocol are still followed within the facility

The global pandemic has put the world into a rapid halt and changed life as we know it. But after months of quarantine, Dallas Cowboys team owner Jerry Jones has finally returned to The Star in Frisco to resume operations.

This comes after commissioner Roger Goodell’s announcement that teams are now allowed to return to their facilities in accordance with their state's guidelines.

As the world continues to suffer from the coronavirus situation, following the necessary precaution is still a must. This is exactly what the Cowboy’s world-class facility The Star is implementing as social distancing protocol is strictly followed.

Per Dallas Cowboy’s website, Jones recognizes this as a big step for sports within this health crisis.

"This is a big day for clubs all over the NFL and for our league as a whole, a big day for sports in general, a day for building confidence," Jones said.

"It's great to be back in the office this morning. I thought there was no better place for me to participate in our virtual League meeting today than right here at my desk at The Star."

Texas is one of the first states to re-open to the public with a maximum of 75 employees entering the premises. While this has been a big step for the Cowboys, the rest of the league is still waiting for the same direction in their respective states. For now, online conferences and meetings will have to do.

This is one of the more eventful seasons for the Cowboys other than the threat of COVID-19. Major offseason moves have been made in anticipation of bouncing back from their 8-8 finish in 2019.

Key moves such as acquiring Andy Dalton from the Cincinnati Bengals as a backup quarterback highlight their big signings. In addition to these, they are also anticipating the debut of rookie wide receiver CeeDee Lamb who luckily fell to the 17th pick of the first round.

Having offices running back again for the Cowboys can be a good sign moving forward for the team and the rest of the league. Everyone has struggled in this unique and rapidly evolving situation that sign of progress is welcome for those deeply affected by this virus.
