BREAKING NEWS: Elon Musk Wants an “Absurd” Price for His Dallas Cowboys Stake – Jerry Jones Responds
The Dallas Cowboys ownership saga has taken another dramatic turn, as reports indicate that Elon Musk is demanding an “absurd” price for his stake in the team. Billionaire Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has now responded to Musk’s shocking valuation, sending waves through the NFL world.
Musk’s Wild Asking Price for His Cowboys Stake
After acquiring a minority stake in the Dallas Cowboys earlier this year, Musk is reportedly ready to cash out—but not without a hefty return. Sources close to the situation claim that Musk is asking for a “record-breaking” amount, far exceeding the team’s $9 billion market valuation.
“Elon Musk is treating the Cowboys like Tesla stock,” one insider joked. “He wants to sell his stake at a price that no sane investor would pay.”
Some reports suggest Musk’s asking price could exceed $20 billion—a figure higher than any sports team in history has ever sold for.
Jerry Jones’ Response: Is a Deal Even Possible?
Jones, who has owned the Cowboys since 1989, is said to be unimpressed with Musk’s valuation. When asked about the situation, Jones reportedly told insiders:
“I love Elon, but I’m not playing his Wall Street games. The Cowboys aren’t for sale like that.”
Jones has always been clear that he doesn’t plan to sell a controlling stake in the Cowboys, so Musk’s extreme valuation may be a negotiating tactic—or an attempt to make headlines.
Why Is Musk Selling His Cowboys Stake?
Musk has a long history of jumping in and out of business ventures—and while his involvement with the Cowboys has been short-lived, there are a few possible reasons why he may be looking to sell:
- Financial Strategy – With Tesla stock fluctuating and other projects demanding attention, Musk could be looking to liquidate assets.
- Disagreements with the NFL – Musk has clashed with the NFL over ownership rules, marketing strategies, and technology integration.
- Lack of Control – Since he doesn’t own a majority stake, Musk may feel limited in making big changes to the Cowboys.
Could This Be a Power Play?
Some analysts believe Musk’s “absurd” price demand isn’t just about making money—it could be a power move to pressure Jones into giving him a larger say in the team’s future.
If Musk refuses to sell at a reasonable price, it could create tension between the two billionaires, forcing Jones to decide whether he wants Musk as a long-term business partner.
Fans React: “Musk Is Playing 4D Chess”
NFL and Cowboys fans are buzzing about the latest developments:
🔥 “Musk is treating the Cowboys like crypto—overpriced and unpredictable!”
💰 “$20 billion? For a MINORITY stake? Jerry ain’t paying that.”
🚀 “Musk should just buy an expansion team and call it ‘Tesla Football.'”
🤯 “If Jerry Jones & Elon Musk ever fully teamed up, the NFL would never be the same!”
What’s Next?
With Musk’s asking price sky-high, it’s unlikely Jones—or any other investor—will agree to his terms without serious negotiations. Will Musk lower his price, or will Jones cut ties with the billionaire altogether?
One thing’s for sure: The Cowboys’ ownership drama is far from over. Stay tuned for more updates! 🏈🔥
