Large Metal Piece Falls From AT&T Stadium Roof Before Cowboys’ MNF Game vs Texans

The roof at AT&T Stadium was supposed to be open for tonight’s Monday Night Football game but after a near accident, it will now be closed.

The Cowboys are hosting the Houston Texans in their inter-state rivalry on Monday night and the plan was to open the roof. However, that plan was scrapped but after a piece of sheet metal fell from the roof and onto the field. Luckily, no one was hit by it, but reports said it came close to making contact with production staff on-site.

Not long after the piece of metal fell, the roof of AT&T Stadium began to close.

Kickoff for the game is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. It becomes the latest issue surrounding the stadium after Cowboys owner Jerry Jones lashed out at question about the sun’s glare inside the stadium following the beatdown the team suffered against the Philadelphia Eagles.
