Stephen’s namesake son John Stephen — who was born on April 19, 1999 — was a natural athlete, leading his high school football team at Highland Park to two back-to-back Texas State titles.

“I can’t tell you how proud I am that my grandson gets to play football at Highland Park — it’s important to me,” Jerry toldFanatics Viewafter John Stephen’s second win in 2017. “It’s very rewarding, and I just can’t believe it’s happened right here at AT&T stadium.”

“I am super pumped to announce that I am committed to The University of Arkansas, " he posted on X (formerly Twitter) at the time. “Thank you to my family for supporting me through this process.”

John Stephen became the starting quarterback in 2019. “I’m so proud of him,” Jerry told105.3 The Fan. “You can have no one on this planet that appreciates the long journey and the ups and the downs it takes to get there than Old Papa. I’m really proud of him and going to be there to watch his first warmup throw.”

After graduating in 2022, John Stephen began working for the Cowboys as a sales consultant and eventually became the manager of corporate partnership sales, according to hisLinkedIn.

Though the family is very private, the dad of three told theArkansas Democrat-Gazettein 2018 that he coached his kids' sports teams — Mary played tennis, soccer and basketball while James played flag football, basketball and soccer.

“We are having a good time and having a good experience and enjoying it,” he said. “The beauty of getting involved in the youth sports is learning to work together as a team and being a part of something that’s not always going to go right and might have some adversity but you just play through it and try to enjoy it.”
