Jerry Jones “Busting the Budget” as Dallas Cowboys Spending Jumps 23%

Jerry Jones is “busting the budget,” exactly as the Cowboys GM said before the offseason, with the team’s spending rising sharply in 2026. Dallas has committed $91.1 million in first-year money compared to $73.9 million in 2025, a 23% increase that could climb close to 30% with additional moves. They have also shifted toward higher upfront spending, moving away from their previous cash-to-cap approach.
