Jerry Jones apologizes for 'inappropriate' racial remark from 4 years ago

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has issued an apology for a racially insensitive comment he made four years ago that surfaced following a report that he used questionable language while threatening Roger Goodell.

A video of Jones at a Dallas hotel bumping into a fan who was about to get married came out Friday morning. In it, the fan - a white man - asked Jones if he could record a message for his fiancee.

"Jennifer, congratulations on the wedding,'' Jones said, according to David Moore of Dallas Morning News. "Now, you know he's with a black girl tonight, don't you?''

The camera then shows an African-American man laughing.

Jones issued a statement through the team Friday, apologizing for the remark.

"That comment was inappropriate. It's not who I am, and I'm sorry.''
