InYellowstoneseason 2 , sequence 10 , " Sins of the Father , " a flashback shows Kevin Costner play a younger interlingual rendition of himself alongside Dabney Coleman , who plays John Dutton II , John Dutton III ’s Fatherhood .

The first propagation is James Dutton ( Tim McGraw ) and Jacob Dutton ( Harrison Ford ) . James had two sons , John Dutton and Spencer Dutton , making them 2nd - generation . Jack is John Dutton ’s son , have him a third - generation Dutton . After that , we jazz John Dutton II is fourth - propagation , John Dutton III is fifth - multiplication , and so on .

Therefore , John Dutton II ’s founding father ( John Dutton III ’s grandad ) had to be a third - generation Dutton . The only third - multiplication Dutton we presently bonk of is Jack , making him the perfect candidate to be John Dutton II ’s father and , thereby , Costner ’s character ’s grandfather . John Dutton II ’s Padre could also have been the child ofSpencer ’s son , but the generational concretion does n’t add up for Spencer to be John Dutton II ’s forefather directly . All that said , what we do know is that if baby John Dutton II come out in the1923prequel , Jack will be his father without a doubt .
