Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones hits out at CeeDee Lambs after claims of sunlight blocking his vision during loss Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones didn't hold back after wide receiver CeeDee Lamb attributed a missed touchdown pass during Sunday’s loss to the Philadelphia Eagles to sunlight blocking his vision.

The Cowboys suffered a crushing 34-6 defeat at home, marking their fourth home loss this season, but Lamb’s comments post-game are what grabbed the headlines.

The Cowboys’ star receiver expressed frustration over sunlight streaming into AT&T Stadium, claiming it interfered with his ability to catch a potential touchdown pass.

When asked post-match if he was in favor of installing curtains to block the sun, Lamb replied emphatically, “Yes, absolutely, 1000%.”

Jones, known for his fiery responses, wasn’t pleased, responding sarcastically when asked about Lamb’s comments.

"Well, let's just tear the damn stadium down and build another one? You kidding me?"

Lamb’s suggestion of adding curtains to control the lighting at AT&T Stadium has reignited discussions over the stadium’s design, which allows natural light to stream in through its distinctive roof openings.

This latest incident highlights ongoing tension within the Cowboys organization as they try to turn their season around.
