Pretty amusing how these news personalities go at it over the issue of Roy Williams. Hope you get a kick out of this.
Some people will read that title and before reading this post, send me a tweet that “duh, Roy Williams was injured and didn’t play.” Thank you, Captains Obvious. Now, for those of you who actually READ articles before responding, here’s the REAL question:
Why wasn’t Roy Williams at the game and on the sideline? Roy didn’t even make the trip to Kansas City. Do what?
The rumor is flying around twitterville that Roy Williams broke his collarbone in a collision with Orlando Scandrick. This rumor has not yet been verified, and the consequences of this is as of yet unknown.
If Roy is forced to sit the first few games of the season, expect Sam Hurd to take the lion’s share of Roy’s receptions, while newcomer Ogletree may yet find a place on the roster for at least this season.
According to Gina Miller, for now, all the Cowboys are willing to admit is that Williams suffered a “shoulder injury.”
ESPN posted more about tonight’s occurence here.
Twitter Updates:
tmacmahon: Two sources tell Todd Archer that X-rays on Roy Williams’ shoulder/collarbone were negative. No break, just a sprain.
One Denver Broncos forum member is calling for Denver to send Brandon Marshall to the Cowboys:
With the Cowboys opening up there brand new 1.2 billion dollar stadium Jerry Jones wants to win and win now. We all know he is willing to take on headcases and also make a desperate deals at the same time.
Brandon Marshall would sell tickets and also bring them a top flite WR to replace Roy Willams and then pair up with him when Williams eventually was healthy.
B-Marsh to Cowboys for a 3rd rounder and Jay Ratliff.
Don’t hold your breath on that one.
DallasCowboys.com posted a rare interview with Roy Williams earlier today. Topics ranged from Tony Romo to handling media criticism.
Here’s an excerpt:
What’s your reaction to the negative comments from guys in the media?
Williams: It’s funny to me. I mean, it really is funny to me. I love it and everything, but it’s funny.
