Roy Williams a number 1 receiving threat over T.O.?


Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, speaking for the first time since the release of wide receiver Terrell Owens, said the controversial player was not cut loose because of chemistry issues in the lockerroom.
The Dallas Morning News reported Jones released Owens because the team wanted Roy Williams to become the No. 1 receiving threat and the development of Miles Austin as a potential No. 2 wideout.
"I had to look at Roy Williams and the future that we have with Roy," Jones said on The Fan (105.3 FM) on Tuesday afternoon. "I'm excited about Roy, so I'd rather have him than the [three] picks we gave up for him in this draft."
Jones also said it gives quarterback Tony Romo a chance to spread the ball around to tight ends Jason Witten and Martellus Bennett and running backs Marion Barber and Felix Jones.

Cowboys out of T.O.'s?



Going T.O.-less has become a topic of serious internal debate at Valley Ranch. And an awful lot of Cowboys front-office types have decided parting ways with him is not only a good idea, but also necessary to fixing what is obviously wrong with this team.
In fairness, none of them are named Owner Jones. Not yet at least.
But word is people very close to him, including a certain son, have been in his ear.
The question, as it always is with Jerry, remains: Will he listen?
