Dallas has grabbed the ticket to playoffs because of their outstanding performance throughout the season. While chatting about all the success that his team is experiencing, the 80-year-old struggled to breathe and hilariously controlled the situation.

The business tycoon made an appearance on Shan & RJ via 105.3 The Fan. Jones talked about how he is interested in bagging the Super Bowl-winning wide receiver, Odell Beckham Jr., on his roster.

The host of the show tried to confirm if the Los Angeles native was okay.
