Jones recently stated his excitement for the Washington Commanders sale after holding a long-term beef with former owner Dan Snyder. After Snyder was forced to sell the team and pay a $60 million fine after being found by an investigation to have sexually harassed an employee, Jones said, "I think it's going to be a great day for the NFL. Exciting. It's, I think, a Hallmark Day." He went on to send a word of warning to incoming owner Harris as he declared: "Excited about the prospects of going into Washington and giving them some capital punishment." Harris purchased the Commanders for $6.05 billion, marking the largest sale in NFL history. Nevertheless, the Cowboys are still the most valuable NFL franchise, valued at $8 billion. Immediately after the purchase, Harris addressed Commanders fans while speaking at a podium. He made it clear that Washington will be preparing to return to the days when the Commanders were the No. 1 franchise in football, ahead of the Cowboys, in a bid to topple Jones and his franchise. "No. 1 franchise in the NFL back when they were the Redskins," Harris said. "Not the Dallas Cowboys. The opportunity is up here (gestured with hand), and the work is up here."
