Cowboys' players had reportedly sent rude texts to former coach Jason Garrett 

In a recent interview with 105.3 The Fan, NFL Network insider Jane Slater shed light on the inner conflict that was taking place in the Cowboys dressing room under former head coach Jason Garrett. Slater reportedly said that Garrett faced a lot of flak from Cowboys players due to the orders of franchise owner - Jerry Jones.

Slater said, “I had seen a screenshot exchange between Jason Garrett and a player, where a player basically told Jason to ‘F-off’ and basically said, ‘Jerry [Jones] told me I don’t have to listen.’ If that was going on, and players thought they could go over the coach’s head, you’re sort of tying the coach’s hands.”
