Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was in the limelight as his team hosted the Green Bay Packers and his former defensive end Micah Parsons in the Week 4 clash on Sunday.

The much-anticipated matchup lived up to the expectations as the two teams couldn't be separated in regular time. However, the game ended in a 40-40 tie after Brandon McManus converted a 34-yard field goal in overtime.

Following the game, Jerry Jones was asked if the tie felt like "kissing his sister." Jones had an unhinged response to the bizarre comparison:

"Well, I've never kissed my sister. How does it taste?"

McManus secured the second-highest-scoring draw in NFL history, cancelling out Brandon Aubrey's effort from 22 yards. The Cowboys held a 37-34 lead with just 43 seconds remaining on the clock in the fourth quarter; however, the Packers pushed the game into overtime after McManus' 53-yard field goal.
