The Dallas Cowboys adapted a Mission: Impossible style for their 2026 NFL schedule release, featuring three Tylers as part of a Tyler Intelligence Agency [TIA]: offensive linemen Tyler Booker, Tyler Guyton, and Tyler Smith. The agents receive covert, spy-themed missions against every 2026 opponent, utilizing gadgets and puns to highlight schedule matchups. When they reach the Los Angeles Rams matchup, the comedic approach take takes a serious turn based on a game-specific intel.
Matthew Stafford ’s wife Kelly Stafford dragged into Dallas Cowboys schedule release video
Four characters: QB Matthew Stafford, QB wife Kelly Stafford, 2026 rookie QB Ty Simpson, and HC Sean McVay.Location: Los Angeles. New recruit: Ty Simpson. Mission: Infiltrate LA team one of two. Intel: Head coach appeared frustrated by the acquisition of the new recruit. QB1 has not reached out but he has developed one connection: Ty Simpson is heard saying, ‘Kelly has actually texted me, but I can’t wait to talk to Matthew.’One of the Cowboys’ Tylers says, “I told him [Ty Simpson] to get close with Matthew and his family. When our game comes up, he’ll be a little more distracted than usual. We have this game in the bag, guys.”There are two shots here taken at Matthew Stafford and his family. One is that the Stafford family is always present on the sidelines cheering for him. The family includes his wife, Kelly, and their four girls, twins Sawyer and Chandler, Hunter, and Tyler. Another shot? A serious one. Kelly Stafford one. Back in June 2025, Kelly admitted at a podcast appearance that she dated Matthew’s backup quarterback just to get under his skin. “I dated the backup to piss him off, which worked — he was the bad boy too. Matthew’s so sweet and a Southern gentleman and all that stuff. And the backup was the complete opposite, and it upset him.” Cybercitizens concluded that it could have been Joe Cox. He was Matthew’s teammate from 2006 to 2008 and was his backup in Georgia Bulldogs. But later on, unwanted attention went towards the Cox family. And this led to Kelly’s social media post stating: “To this beautiful fam… I am sorry for the media storm that happened last week that made its way into your lives. You had ZERO involvement in what I spoke about and in fact, it was y’alls relationship in college that I looked up to and wanted for me and Matthew. You were the couple that everyone thinks Matthew and I was.. y’all were the UGA QB and cheerleader that met and never let go. I love y’all [red heart emoji].” Though the specific backup Kelly dated to piss Matthew off hasn’t officially come to light, but Dallas Cowboys just allegedly fanned the flame of an old flame connection here through their 2026 schedule release video! By bringing in a potential future backup Ty Simpson into the realm.
