Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is adamant that he has no problem with the passion shown by wide receiver Dez Bryant.
The 26-year-old was seen shouting at his teammates and coaches from the sidelines during his side's win over the Chicago Bears on Thursday, as they struggled to kill the game off in the fourth quarter.
However, Jones believes that Bryant is harmless and his outbursts are only out of a drive to see his side succeed.
"He's a teddy bear. He's a teddy bear," Jones told 105.3 The Fan. "He's the neatest guy to be around you've ever seen. But I'm going to tell you one thing: he's got a passion button, and there's no stopping him.
"And you just - you just can't calm him down when he gets going. And he uses a lot of energy doing that. I've seen him use productive part of his energy in an early part of a game getting nuts over there."
The Cowboys ended a run of three straight seasons with only eight victories as they recorded their ninth win of the campaign against the Bears.
