ARLINGTON, Texas - Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is planning to spend close to $300 million to upgrade AT&T Stadium in Arlington ahead of the FIFA World Cup in four years.
The team has only been at the stadium for 13 years, but they believe it's time for the stadium to get a face-lift.
The upgrades are in preparation for the stadium to host matches during the 2026 World Cup, and to remain in the running to host other events, like another Super Bowl.

Without saying what changes would be made specifically, a spokesperson for the team said this is not expected to change the stadium's overall look.
