The Dallas Cowboys are 2-5 after an embarrassing 25-3 loss to the Washington Football Team, but executive vice president Stephen Jones is still optimistic about the team.
"I just think you're gonna take your lumps with a new staff," Jones said Monday on 105.3 The Fan (h/t Jon Machota of The Athletic. "... I think we're going in the right direction."
Mike McCarthy is in his first year as the team's head coach after replacing Jason Garrett in the offseason. Despite the slow start, the front office is standing behind the coach.
"You're gonna watch a team evolve over time," Jones added.
