Stephen Jones: 'If they want to be a Dallas Cowboy,' players will fall in line with Jerry's national anthem policy

Stephen Jones on Thursday doubled down on his father and Cowboys owner Jerry Jones' comments about expecting the team's players to stand for the national anthem on Sundays.

In an interview with KTCK 96.7 FM The Ticket's Norm and D Invasion, Stephen Jones reiterated his father's policy, which was laid out at Wednesday's news conference to kick off training camp in Oxnard, Calif.:

"There's one way to do it right in our mind, and that's go toes on the line and stand for the anthem," Jones said.

He said that players would be punished if they choose to stay in the locker room instead.
