Ha, yep. I have a tendency to skim articles for the player quotes sometimes. That time I missed an important detail.
Despite the free fall, Gregory insisted on attending the draft in Chicago. Ken and Mary Gregory accompanied their son. He was the last one in the green room. At 9:09 p.m., as the first night of the draft wound down, Gregory sent a text to Cowboys coach Jason Garrett.
Gregory felt as if he had connected with the Cowboys. In the weeks before the draft, he had a heart-to-heart talk with owner Jerry Jones.
"He cried," Gregory says. "He said, 'I know what it's like to be publicly scrutinized.'"
So, it turns out I wasn't actually wrong again. That must get old for the rest of you. I apologize.
