Metal Falls from AT&T Stadium Roof, Delays Cowboys Game
TL;DR

The incident occurred when the stadium's roof was being opened before a game against the Texans, but no injuries were reported. The roof, which hadn't been opened for a game in over two years, was closed for the match due to the wind damage. Jones assured that there was no risk to fans and that the roof is "fixable."
