So far, the returns on the Cowboys' receiver-by-committee approach this season are underwhelming.
But team owner Jerry Jones said Tuesday morning during his regular radio show on KRLD-FM [105.3 The Fan] that Dallas hasn't had the luxury of a true No. 1 receiver for several seasons. The club cut long-time No. 1 receiver Dez Bryant in April because of declining production.
The Cowboys saw a No. 1 receiver up close in Sunday's loss at Houston, when DeAndre Hopkins had nine catches for 151 yards and made a whirling 49-yard play in overtime to set up the winning field goal.
