The Dallas Cowboys are one of the few teams in the NFL that will have fans present in their home opener in the 2020 season. Jerry Jones, the owner of the Cowboys, shared his opinion on some teams having fans in person while others won't.

“Absolutely [it’s fair],” Jones said on 105.3 The Fan on Tuesday. “The benefit of crowds are important to sports. On the other hand, is it possible to have great games without it? You saw one the other night in basketball. But it’s fair. We’ve made up our minds that this thing isn’t going to be one way or the other, surely, about evening up everything that could be competitive. You’ve got to have to adapt to the virus. Attendance being one of them. And to the end that we can get fans enjoying these games with the experience similar to the thing they’ve become accustomed [to] is a big step in the right direction.”

When the Cowboys travel to take on the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium in Week 1, fans won't be in attendance. However, in Week 2 versus the Atlanta Falcons, Dallas will host Atlanta with fans cheering them on.

There has been controversy surrounding the NFL's decision to have an inconsistent policy on fan attendance, for the Cowboys and everyone else. Mike Zimmer, the head coach of the Minnesota Vikings believes it gives an ‘unfair advantage' to teams that can have fans. On the other hand, Vic Fangio of the Denver Broncos shares the same stance as Jones.

Other major sports leagues have a universal policy where no fans are able to attend games. While the NFL didn't follow other league's attendance guidelines, Jones believes it was the right decision. We will see what this means for the Cowboys and the rest of the league.
