IRVING, Texas – With the Cowboys’ playoff odds looking increasingly insurmountable, there’s boundless speculation about the future.
Inside the organization, though, the focus remains singular on Saturday’s game against New York. Never was that more apparent than Tuesday morning, when Cowboys owner/general manager Jerry Jones was asked about the possibility of resting Dez Bryant for the team’s remaining three games.
The concept sounded so foreign to Jones that he had to clarify the question.
“Shut him down? No. I hope their defense doesn’t shut him down early, but no, not at all,” he said.
