05:39 AM ET 10.26 | This month, the NFL named Jones the head of its NFL Network committee. The league wants him to broker a deal with cable companies that has the potential of doubling the audience for its network. The NFL needs Jones to work his sales magic on behalf of his 31 partners and break a stalemate in negotiations with the major cable suppliers. The NFL Network has never been televised by the cable systems of Time-Warner and Cablevision. Time-Warner is in 13 million homes, Cablevision in 3.5 million. The NFL Network had been included in the digital basic package of Comcast. That cable supplier is in 24 million homes, but only 9 million of them are digital.
