Cowboys’ Jourdan Lewis Criticizes Lions’ Tackle-Eligible Plays, Faces Backlash Over Hateful DM

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Jourdan Lewis has been at the center of controversy following the team’s recent game against the Detroit Lions. Lewis criticized the Lions for their extensive use of tackle-eligible plays, describing it as “a terrible joke.”

During the game, the Lions employed a tackle-eligible formation nine times, including on the first play of the game. Lewis expressed his frustration, suggesting that the tactic was more of a satirical joke than a serious strategic move.

In addition to his on-field comments, Lewis has faced backlash for a private message he sent to Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown. St. Brown exposed the message on social media, revealing a hateful DM from Lewis after the Lions’ significant victory over the Cowboys. This incident has drawn further attention to Lewis’s behavior off the field.

The game was particularly notable as it coincided with Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones‘s birthday, making the team’s loss even more embarrassing. The exchange between Lewis and St. Brown has highlighted the intense rivalry and personal tensions that can arise in professional sports.
