It’s been nearly 30 years since Jimmy Johnson won two Super Bowls for the Dallas Cowboys but due to a falling out with owner Jerry Jones he has never been invited to be a part of the team’s Ring of Honor.
On Thursday, before Fox’s Hall of Game between the Cowboys and the Bears, Johnson and Jones had an emotional reunion on live TV.

During Jones’ appearance, Fox’s Terry Bradshaw straight up put Jones on the spot and asked him if he was finally going to induct Johnson into the Cowboys Ring Of Honor.
After asking him multiple times if he was going to make an announcement, Jones finally relented and said he would include Johnson into the Ring of Honor.
