The Cowboys made the playoffs thrice beneath Garrett, every time going out within the divisional spherical. Nonetheless, the Cowboys solely had one dropping season (2015) throughout his time in Dallas.

Finally, Jerry is the proprietor and basic supervisor. He’s the one which makes the selections. He’s the one which drafts the participant."
