and people were putting him as a starter and giving him 10+ sacks for the season. as parcells use to say, if you are not on the field, you can't do anything....he is not on the field. not reliable. freaking his 4th year in the league. been caught 4 times and suspended twice. get you ****** head screwed on right. get yourself a coach, therapist and a mentor and stay the straight path. you just said bye to millions of dollars...

If this turns out to be a false report, will all people that freaked out then go to a therapist and get themselves a mentor...

Don’t add up. If it was a failed drug test in August the goodell would have suspended him. Appeals won’t work for him at this point. It’s straight up suspension. They draw 2 samples during the test if one comes back failed then they test the second sample. If that comes back failed then that’s all they need. It may be something else.

Now if he gets suspended for 1 game which happens to be against mara team next week then JJ better hire a lawyer and do whatever he needs to do to get goodell out. That’s straight up collusion.

He has to be on such thin ice that the League wouldn’t even wait to launch him if something did happen, right?

I mean they wouldn’t even let him dress. If #94 isn’t on sideline then it’s true.

If true the league still has a protocol they go by so no it is very possible that if Gregory has violated the substance abuse policy could face suspension next week or so.

Jerry hasn't been doing good in league battles recently unfortunately.

I am concerned about this report, if it was about player x, y or z I may take it with a grain of salt but given the track record of Gregory I am very concerned. He can't afford any slip ups. I hope the report is false but if true Dallas needs to move on

This. Unfortunately you have to consider the player's history and it isn't good. Given the League Office Giants are next on the Cowboys schedule, expect an announcement next week. I hope I'm wrong but today could be Randy's last game.

This simply sounds like the league is investigating his awol incident. It clearly violated the terms of his reinstatement and he had a meeting with the league about it. This likely comes down to what he said he was doing during those hours and whether the league believes him or wants to play hardball. Hopefully the incident really wasn’t anything major and further treatment is needed instead of suspension.

A voice of reason. I'm now leaning towards this theory.

One thing that sort of gives me hope is that the team hasn't shown any indication that it believes Gregory will be suspended. If the FO thought there was even a slight chance of a suspension, you have to believe that they would have kept more than 4 DEs on the 53 and PS combined.

Sorry it’s just hilarious to me to be envious of the Eagles which is a loser organization. I guess our fans don’t care about rivalries though which is why we have no homefield advantage.
1. I'm not a wine and cheese type of fan. If it were my choice, I'd have added $200M in renovations to Texas Stadium and been perfectly pleased with that for the rest of my life.
2. If you went to a game in Philly, I promise you I'm the guy you want having your back.
3. There's nothing wrong with keeping an eye on the competition. You don't think Microsoft does it with Apple? You don't think management at Morgan Stanley are flipping tables if Goldman Sachs is ahead of the curve on a trading algorithm. If this franchise was ran properly Jerry would be anal about these issues instead we remain incredibly complacent in a cut throat parity-driven league. We should be using our war chest to stay ahead of our NFCE competitors in things like coaching, scouting, data metrics, consulting, nutrition, s&c, etc...ya know things that have no relation to the salary cap. We are getting lapped in this department despite having more funds than any team. Remember only a few years ago we were laughing on CZ about how the Eagles got themselves into salary cap hell with the "Dream Team"? How does it not bother you that they got out of that situation twice and got a super bowl while we continue to twiddle our thumbs with the process?
