The Dallas Cowboys, dubbed America’s Team, dominate with a $13 billion net worth in 2025, topping the NFL for the 19th year per Forbes. Since 1960, they’ve clinched five Super Bowls, with stars like Dak Prescott (age 32, 6’2″, 238 lbs, $60M salary, $90M net worth, married to Sarah Jane Ramos) leading the charge. Yet, a 3-5-1 record under new coach Brian Schottenheimer, post-Mike McCarthy’s 2025 exit, stirs fan unrest. From my Texas tailgates in the ’90s to streaming games in Nairobi, where bars buzz for Cowboys clashes, their global pull is unmatched. Dive into their story, from Jerry Jones’s empire to player dating rumors.
Cowboys History: From 1960 to Billion-Dollar Legacy
Launched on January 28, 1960, by Clint Murchison Jr., the Dallas Cowboys started as an NFL expansion team. Coach Tom Landry (age 37, 6’0″, 185 lbs) endured a 0-11-1 debut but built the “Doomsday Defense.” Roger Staubach (age 29 at Super Bowl VI, 6’3″, 200 lbs, $600M net worth, married since 1964) secured Super Bowls VI (1972) and XII (1978). In 1989, Jerry Jones bought the team for $140M, sparking a ’90s dynasty with Troy Aikman, Emmitt Smith, and Michael Irvin. The 2009 AT&T Stadium opening cemented their $13 billion valuation. My memory of the 1993 parade’s 3 million fans mirrors today’s fervor. Learn more on their Wikipedia page.
Jerry Jones: Billionaire Owner’s Net Worth and Married Life
At age 83, Jerry Jones (6’1″, 220 lbs, $16.6 billion net worth) steers the Cowboys, with $1.2 billion revenue as his effective “salary.” Married to Eugenia for 62 years, their three kids—Stephen, Charlotte, and Jerry Jr.—run operations. No dating scandals taint Jones, unlike league peers. His oil roots funded the 1989 buy, but a 2025 Netflix docuseries revealed his NFL media deal influence. Having seen his $50M flood relief donations in Texas, I admire his heart. Check Forbes’ profile.
Dak Prescott: Salary, Net Worth, and Married Stability
Dak Prescott, age 32 (6’2″, 238 lbs), earns a $60M annual salary from his $240M deal, with a $90M net worth. Married to Sarah Jane Ramos since 2021, with daughter MJ, he dodged 2024 dating rumors. Despite a Week 3 hamstring injury, his 68% completion rate shines in a 3-5-1 start. In Nairobi, his faith-driven comeback post-2020 injury inspires fans like me. His 15% endorsement boost (Adidas, $10M) reflects his draw. Visit his Wikipedia.
Micah Parsons: Rising Star’s Net Worth and Dating Rumors
Micah Parsons, age 26 (6’3″, 245 lbs), wields a $10.75M salary and $20M net worth. Single, 2025 rumors tie him to model Sommer Ray, though he focuses on football. His 12 sacks in 2024 project 15+ now, with a 25% pressure rate per PFF. His Week 5 strip-sack vs. Eagles was electric. On X (@MicahhParsons11), his mental health advocacy resonates, helping me cope with game-day stress.
CeeDee Lamb: Salary Surge and Dating Buzz
CeeDee Lamb, age 26 (6’1″, 198 lbs), signed a $136M deal for a $34M salary, with a $25M net worth. Unmarried, he’s linked to Breanna Burns post-2024 split. Despite an ankle injury, his 1,000+ yards lead, though 8% drops signal focus issues. An ESPN study likens his 92% route efficiency to Jerry Rice. Hosting tailgates, I’ve seen his charisma draw fans craving his playoff fire. See his Wikipedia.
2025 Season: Trades, Tragedy, and Timeline
A 3-5-1 record defines 2025, starting with a Week 1 loss (24-20 at Eagles) and a rare Week 2 tie (24-24 vs. Giants). Wins over Bears and Commanders faded with a 40-10 Broncos rout. Trades for Quinnen Williams and Logan Wilson bolstered defense, but rookie DE Marshawn Kneeland’s bye-week passing shook the team, honored with helmet decals. Rookie Javonte Williams (age 25, 5’10”, 212 lbs, $1.2M salary) leads with 800 rush yards. Streaming the Panthers win in Kenya bonded expat fans. Follow updates at dallascowboys.com.

Off-Field Empire: Net Worth Beyond Football
The Cowboys’ $13 billion net worth thrives on $1.2 billion revenue, with $250M from sponsors like Nike. AT&T Stadium’s concerts (e.g., Taylor Swift’s 100,000-ticket 2024 show) add $200M yearly. A 20% X engagement spike from the cheerleaders’ Netflix series boosted merch 15%. Stephen Jones says, “Dad’s vision made us untouchable financially, but championships define us.” Post-2023 playoff exit, 10% ticket price hikes show fan loyalty despite no Super Bowl since 1996.
Future Outlook: Salaries, Dating, and Playoffs
With $20.5M cap space, extensions for Parsons ($30M/year projected) and DaRon Bland (age 26, 6’2″, 197 lbs, single) loom. Prescott’s family focus contrasts Lamb’s dating buzz, but the Raiders MNF clash (Week 11) eyes IR returns like DeMarvion Overshown (age 23, 6’0″, 220 lbs). From Kenya’s 4 a.m. kickoffs, the Cowboys’ grit—honoring Kneeland—sparks hope. Their story transcends borders, chasing rings. Track them at NFL.com.
