Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was fined $250,000 for flipping off Jets fans in the aftermath of last Sunday's 37-22 victory at MetLife Stadium.

Jones was considering appealing the fine, but has decided to pay up after his taunt, which he said was "purely accidental" as he was trying to "give a thumbs up."

#Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has decided not to appeal his $250,000 for flipping the bird at fans last week.

As Jones said in his hall of fame speech, he loves all fans and has received his fair share of “love salutes” from them over the years. Consider this paying it forward.

OK, Jerry.

Sounds like Jones would like to simply move on from the incident, and who could blame him?

The Cowboys travel to Carolina to take on the Panthers on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET.
