FRISCO, Texas – From the front office to the roster itself, the Cowboys was in full support of the cancelation of their preseason finale on Wednesday.
The Cowboys had been set to host the Houston Texans on Thursday in a game that had been relocated to the Dallas area by the devastation of Hurricane Harvey. On Wednesday morning, the Texans received word that they could get back to their homes in the Houston area, which has been hit by record-setting rainfall and flooding, and opted to return.
Given the hardships the region has undergone in the past week, and given that their AFC neighbors have been stranded outside of their hometown for the better part of a week, it was a decision the Cowboys understood.
