Jerry Jones' children were involved in freak car accident outside stadium before game against 49ers: report

Members of Jerry Jones' family were injured in a freak car accident outside Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, before the Dallas Cowboys' game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night.

The Athletic reported that the “second vehicle of the Jones family caravan” was struck by a “rising barricade” outside the stadium.

Jerry's daughter Charlotte Jones Anderson, his son Jerry Jones Jr. and Charlotte's son Shy Anderson Jr. were in the car.

The report added that Charlotte and Jerry Jr. were examined by the Cowboys' medical staff at the stadium and were able to move to the visiting owners' suite for the game.

That investigation reportedly found that Charlotte may have suffered a rib injury from the accident, while Jerry Jr. suffered a head injury, the Jones family told The Athletic.

The Jones family can usually be seen at every game during the Cowboys season and travel everywhere to watch their team go to work every weekday.

Charlotte Jones serves as the Cowboys' executive vice president and chief brand officer while also becoming the first woman to serve as chair of the NFL Foundation, which is responsible for philanthropic efforts across the sport.

Jones Jr. is the Cowboys' chief sales and marketing officer and executive vice president.

All three of Jones' children are co-owners of the franchise, with Stephen Jones serving as chief operating officer.

The Jones family traveled to the Bay Area in hopes that Dak Prescott and the Cowboys would do better there than they did last season at Levi's Stadium, a 42-10 loss to the 49ers on Oct. 8, 2023.

The Cowboys are 3-3 on the year after being knocked out by the Detroit Lions two weeks ago before their bye week.

At 6-2 against the Washington Commanders and 5-2 against the Philadelphia Eagles, the Cowboys know they have to compete if they want to compete for the NFC East title they won in 2023.
