Report: Jerry Jones locked out of team locker room

Chris Strauss, USA TODAY Sports
According to a local TV sports reporter, Jerry Jones was not happy at being shut out of the Cowboys locker room following Sunday night's loss to Atlanta.

After watching his team drop to 3-5 in last night's 19-13 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was reportedly fuming. It didn't get much better when he got down to the visiting locker room at the Georgia Dome and found himself forced to wait in the hallway.

"Jerry Jones just pounded locker room door because no one would let him in. It's the angriest I've seen him all year. #Cowboys," tweeted NBC5 sports anchor Matt Barrie.

Barrie's tweet makes it hard to determine if Jones was locked out intentionally by coach Jason Garrett or members of the team's staff or if it was a matter of security in a visiting stadium just not opening the doors quickly enough. But after losing a second straight game, especially on a day where they could have moved closer in the NFC East due to a Giants loss, Cowboys staffers should know better than to test the notoriously involved owner's patience.

Then again, maybe they just were just afraid he'd start rapping about pizza again.
