McClain Still in Play According to Stephen Jones & JG?

[Bluestang]

Clarence Hill tweeted "Jason Garrett and Stepen Jones said the Cowboys are still in play for Rolando McClain. No progress but they are still in it and want him"

This seems to be contradicting to what Mike Fisher reported.

I'm not surprised though, since Fisher seems to have an issue with McClain overall. When McClain was in training camp, Fisher tried to report that McClain had seemingly walked out on the team and had quit but what actually happened was McClain took a restroom break.

I guess this is some positive news to those still holding hope for McClain's return.

Great news. But not surprised. His off field issues have devalued him in FA, and Cowboys' coaches and players absolutely love Ro. Just have to find that happy medium on his contract numbers.

Is anyone else in play as well?

If not signing with Dallas, what is he doing? Holding out hope the offers will dramatically increase?

And also a look at those concussions he had last year, send him to a good head doctor before we do a contract.

He's putting in a call to Chip as we speak. I kid, I hope.

It's football, everyone has concussions. I admit, some are worse than others.

Dallas can probably wait until training camp to sign him. I mean there is zero market for him outside of Dallas. I thought he was dynamic at start of last year but totally unreliable toward the end and through his career.

I'm still expecting McClain to be back as a Cowboy. Between his history, injuries/play toward seasons end, and possible suspension i can't see anyone giving him much in FA. Why not go back to what worked for him?

At the end of the season, Mickey Spags was saying that RoMc would only consider coming back if the coaching staff came back. I believe Steve Dennis was echoing the same sentiment.

Obviously Dallas has made moves without him so at this point this is no harm waiting him out.

How bout we get some dline to help him take a little less punishment.

He said it was an "indefinite bathroom break". He also reported some other unacceptable stuff that wasn't reported as it happened which is also unacceptable to me. I'm starting to look sideways at all of it, Unless I hear something from Jerry or Jason, its all relative..

there is no possible suspension. Its possible 4 game FINE.

McClain could still sign
Carr could still take a pay cut and stay
lots of things could still happen....patience

Amen!

maybe because his conditioning was not great. i would think he needs the off season program as much as the next guy

good to know

Fisher is proving to be a hack. 3 days before Hardy was signed, he said he was out.

Typical thin skinned response from this complete fraud insider.
