Last week, the NFL sent a letter to owner Jerry Jones accusing hims of "" after Jones if they approved commi sioner Roger Goodell's new contract. It was the latest escalation between the league and Jones, a schism that appears to have origins in Cowboys star running back for six games. But on Tuesday, Jones abruptly dropped the idea of a lawsuit. According to a letter from Jones to owner and chair of the compensation committee Arthur Blank , Jones' initial concern was that only those owners on the compensation committee had a say in Goodell's contract; he wanted every owner to have "a voice in approving the terms." And now that, in Jones' view, the committee "is receiving valuable feedback from a number John Ludvig Women Jersey of owners," he is "standing down from my threat of litigation against the committee." But this isn't the end of . "I want accountability," Jones told USAToday.com's Jarrett Bell on Tuesday. Jones also tries to make it clear that this feud has nothing to do with what he Mackenzie Weegar Men Jersey views is his star player's unfair treatment by Goodell and the league. "This is not about replacing Roger," the Cowboys owner continued. "It's a misnomer to say it's payback for Ezekiel Elliott. It is about the accountability of the commi sioner to all of the ownership." Jones' about-face comes 10 days after CBS Sports NFL Insider Jason La Canfora because, according to La Canfora's sources, "his attacks on commi sioner Roger Goodell are being seen by his peers as a direct reaction to his anger of Ezekiel Elliott's six-game suspension and are diminishing his respect and influence among other owners." Put another way: It's hard to imagine that this doesn't have almost everything to do with Elliott, but Jones knows that he doesn't have the support to block Goodell's contract extension. But despite the setback, Jones says he will continue to be the mouthpiece for the other owners because, ultimately, he wants Aleksi Heponiemi Women Jersey the best for the league. "My position is that the owners expect me to be the ombudsman for them, as to this committee," Jones told Bell. "No one has the NFL's best interest in mind more than me, and I'm doing what I was asked to do by the owners. I don't see how you can be disciplined for that."
