Is Deion Sanders a prospect for the Cowboys work?
Shortly after McCarthy and the Cowboys went their different means, word emerged that Jerry Jones had actually chatted with Deion Sanders concerning the work. The level of those discussions aren’t truly understood. Was it a meeting? A short conversation? No matter, Sanders also remaining in the mix in all is significant, also if him obtaining worked with is not likely. He would certainly need to be tempted far from a great setting at Colorado, where, unlike with the Cowboys, his ability as an employer would certainly get on complete display screen. The Cowboys would certainly likewise need to pay an acquistion to Colorado, reported to be about $8 million. And Dallas would likely be confronted with a choice at quarterback, with Sanders’ boy, Shedeur, anticipated to be amongst the leading choices at the setting in this year’s draft. Trading Dak Prescott would certainly note an enormous change in the company, and a quite pricey wage cap struck.
Still, NFL expert Ed Werder on Thursday uploaded on X that Sanders would certainly “probably approve” the Cowboys work, if Jones provided, which Jones “is captivated with the concept.”
