Jerry Jones' Grandson John Stephen Sets Texas State Championship Passing Record
John Stephen Jones, the grandson of Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, set a Texas high school state championship game record with 564 passing yards as Highland Park defeated Manvel High School 53-49 in a thriller at AT&T Stadium on Friday night.
Jones also tossed four touchdowns, including a game-winning score to Cade Saustad with 34 seconds remaining in regulation, as Sports Illustrated documented on Twitter:
Manvel had one last chance to respond, and it nearly pulled off a miracle when Texas A&M commit Jalen Preston hauled in a pass at the 1-yard line before he was tackled just short of the goal line.
247Sports' Mike Roach captured sideline video of the game's final play:
Thanks to that stop, Highland Park was able to capture back-to-back state titles and hoist championship hardware for the fifth time in program history.
Jones, who is a 2-star prospect, according to 247Sports' database, has fielded offers from Texas Tech, SMU and his grandfather's alma mater, Arkansas.
