However, the latest update from Jerry Jones shows that this romance might finally come to an end. In his recent appearance on air, Jones showed signs of his love story coming to an end before it really kicked off.
With time being the key factor in this, he seemed quite pessimistic about his ideal situation. “That time is moving on down the road relative to playing in the playoffs, so every day diminishes our chances of going forward,” said Jones. With just three games to go before the regular season ends, roping in the superstar might not be the most economical transaction either. However, Jones has secured some other players in the last few weeks. He was probably always unsure of OBJ’s timelines of returning.

At this point, OBJ is most likely to sign for a team in the coming season. While this will frustrate him, it might also work out for him better. However, he had also made trips to the Bills and Giants and also had interest from his former team Rams during this process. Time will tell where he will finally land.
