Stephen Jones said months ago they viewed this as a "redshirt" season for Smith. I've seen nothing official that it's changed, just speculation.

Jerry himself said last week he won't rule him out for return, and said he's "on the brink" (paraphrasing). He doesn't count as official I guess?

You are correct. My initial source said 6 weeks and I went with it. Found a short Time later that it was 5 weeks. Thanks for the correct info, though. I hate to be the spreader of inaccurate info.
The info you added was far more accurate than the info in that article. I'm surprised Archer wrote that. He's usually fairly good.

that article was old, so it is not really relevant as the author had no chance to incorporate any rumors the press may have gotten hold of in the last month or so.

Dear mods, consistent with the no new Zeke accusation threads without proof, now that we know what the reinstatement process is, can we please ban all Jaylon threads that don't include verifiable evidence of medical eligibility to play or not play this season.

No. Don't click the thread. Easy peasy, Dooms.

The Zeke sensationalization and our speculation on Jaylon are apples and oranges.

This is a Cowboys forum. It's what we do.

As far as the difference between the two, I disagree. Other than the now clarified NFL reintroduction procedure, there hasn't been a single valuable element of information offered on the Jaylon subject - lots of unprofessional medical prognostication combined with bizarre and meaningless innuendo. No different than the Zeke incident inferences - nothing concrete or factual - and both have major roster implications.

Your take is just that... your take. I found all of this speculation interesting, and thus, valuable (for myself and many others, yet there's always a straggler or two that come in these Jaylon threads with a take similar to yours -- a very small minority -- albeit somewhat vocal). You don't get to tell me what is valuable or not. Respectfully, brudda.

And yes, it's much, much different than that Zeke fiasco, but let's not go there, mmkay...

It wasn't addressed to you.

One disparages a Cowboy accusing him of criminal activity. The other doesn't.

Yes different.

Disparagement of a player for criminal activity has not been the exclusive qualifier for extra fan zone relegation - more often than not, it's based on eternal polemics or unfounded speculation.

Says you. I say it's completely arbitrary mostly doing with board traffic becoming cumbersome to the staff.

I don't know why it bothers you that some of us like to talk about the Jaylon's future. Smith himself certainly invites it.

If you had anything substantive to report, it would be great. I indicated that I appreciated the clarification of the NFL's player reintroduction schedule. I don't find the non-professional neurological prognostications or the deciphering of cryptic tweets to be of any particular use. The poor guy is facing greater consequences than reestablishing a football career, I guess that I'm just uncomfortable with the speculation, to be honest.

I'm not a fan of these threads either bro. I have to get really run dry of anything Cowboys to come into this thread.

But this isn't the media--there are no journalist principles here-- and even the media these days has no problems with reporting stories chock full of agenda, 100% devoid of truth.

:lmao:

this could be entirely coincidence and us reading into this too much, or Jaylon could even be reading this website and having fun with us.
Jaylon - if you are reading this, we have no patience, and enquiring minds want to know.. At least show us whether you are wearing the ATO all the time, or not :muttley:
