You probably have heard the stories. Or caught wind of the name and his famous grandpa. There have been stories of helicopter trips and appearances in the owner’s box for Dallas Cowboys’ games at AT&T Stadium.

If your interest has been perked, you have a chance to see for yourself, the next round of Jones’ family football progeny.

Highland Park quarterback John Stephen Jones, son of the Cowboys’ Executive Vice President Stephen Jones and grandson of Cowboys’ owner Jerry Jones, leads the Scots against Mansfield Lake Ridge in the Class 5A Division I state quarterfinals at 7:30 p.m. Friday at AT&T Stadium.
