The Dallas Cowboys didn’t have practice on Friday, but that didn’t stop COO Stephen Jones from making more news. During his interview on 105.3 The Fan, Jones kept recent trade rumors alive, but it’s what he said after the interview that’s caused a stir. According to reports, Jones hinted at bringing in a big-time player, a player local to Texas. Immediately reigniting the trade rumors around Dolphins linebacker Jordyn Brooks. Only time will tell if a Brooks or Maxx Crosby trade happens, but now fans can truly say “like father, like son” after Stephen Jones added to the trade fever in Dallas.
But that wasn’t the only Cowboys-related news: former quarterback-turned-CBS broadcaster Tony Romo was sidelined by CBS after his July arrest. Once news broke that an open bottle of alcohol was found in his vehicle, it was enough for CBS to make this move. Replacing Romo on the broadcast for now will be former Houston Texan J.J. Watt, leaving Romo’s future with the network in limbo until his legal issues are resolved.
