NEW YORK (AP) — Suspended Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones has entered an alcohol treatment center. The oft-troubled player has checked into a facility "in another part of the country," Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told The Associated Press on Monday.

"It's totally done through and by the NFL," Jerry Jones said.

The NFL said Monday it would not comment.

FORT WORTH, Texas — Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones could more than make up for his share of the team's new $1.1 billion stadium through personal seat licenses and suite sales, according to a newspaper analysis.

If Jones sells all 55,000 seat licenses at costs ranging from $2,000 to $150,000, he could bring in $735 million without including the price of the ticket, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported in an analysis published Sunday.

Another $400 million is already guaranteed through the 200 suites sold at a minimum price of $100,000 a year, including game tickets, with a 20-year lease.

Jones is paying $750 million of the stadium's cost. The city of Arlington is providing most of the remaining $350 million through voter-approved bonds that will be paid back from portions of sales, hotel occupancy and rental car taxes. The stadium opens next year.

Personal site licenses are becoming a popular way for team owners to finance new stadiums. They are charged to season ticket holders for the rights to the seats and don't include ticket prices. Fans can finance the licenses over up to 30 years and are allowed to sell them on the private market.

Rather than just reading over the massive numbers, try – for just a moment – to envision the product they describe.

Imagine four city buses parked in a line. Now imagine another layer of buses stacked on top of them. Add five more layers and hang the 28-bus cluster over a mental football field.

Having trouble? You're not alone. Even the folks behind the new Cowboys stadium can't really fathom how the world's largest video displays will change the game for fans.

"We have no reference point. It's completely different than anything else in football," said Jack Hill, director of stadium construction.

IRVING, Texas -- As much as Jerry Jones wanted to add a receiver to help Terrell Owens and Tony Romo, he's struck out so far this offseason.

No free agents. No draft picks. No trades.

Instead, the Dallas Cowboys are counting on a comeback from Terry Glenn, who missed nearly all of last season because of two knee operations and wasn't on the field for the start of voluntary organized team activities this week.

Problem? Just proceeding with caution, said Jones, adding that he had "a good long personal visit" with Glenn on Monday.

"There is no medical reason right now that he couldn't come out," Jones said. "But ... we weren't going to ask him to win the Super Bowl out there. So that is a key. We don't want him to do that in training camp, but we do want him to get as much timing and as much work with Romo as he can. He's doing some receiving. And we want him to spend as much time with the young receivers as he can."

Glenn turns 34 the day before players report to training camp. Owens is 35, giving the Cowboys perhaps the oldest starting tandem in the league.

Dallas' justification is that Owens is in tremendous shape and that Glenn is still among the fastest players, even if he's lost a step because of age and injuries.

Glenn has played all 16 games only twice in his 12-year career. He's also had two seasons pretty much wiped out by injuries.
