Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones admitted that he will contemplate tinting the west-facing windows at AT&T Stadium.

His decision to do so comes on the heels of FIFA demanding the curtains be closed during recent World Cup match at the venue.

"Well, do you know something?" Jones told Fox 4. "Thinking about it and doing something about it are two different things. ... But I'll think about it. It's hard to tell that time of the year, because the sun's not the same. This time of the year that it is, in the fall. And that is, you get on into -- sun changes, and the angle of that sun changes from September through year-round. But as we look at it, I like some of the effects of the tinting. And so we're giving that a thought."


The sun shines through the end zones in late-afternoon games, creating an aesthetic view but one that also -- on occasion -- affects game play.

Cowboys star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, for example, dropped an easy touchdown pass because of the glare in a 34-6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Nov. 10, 2024.

"I couldn't see the ball. Couldn't see the ball, at all. The sun," Lamb said at the time.
