What are the odds of Terry Glenn coming back?
I guess I've been naive about the situation.
I figured that since he returned last year at the end that he would be ready to go this year.

Mickey just said on the radio that his return is 50-50.

Way to go out on a limb there, Mick. He either will come back or he won't.

On that note, Romo's return chances are 50-50, also. As are TOs. And Bob Hayes's.

Odds of coming back - 100-0

Odds of making it through minicamps, training camp, and the entire season - 20-80

Yeah, this is the kicker. He's been injured the last three seasons. He has a degenerative knee condition that he's had surgery on twice now. He chose the more dangerous surgery in an attempt to come back last year. He sucked up a roster spot for no effect last year as well.

Anyone who counts on having him in playable condition is making a bad bet. The guy was a trooper, but....

I agree. I expect Glenn to be at camp I'm just not very confident that he can make it throughout the season. The nature of his injury is not going to improve so it comes down to how much discomfort and pain he can withstand

You'd have to ask someone within the Cowboys organization.

None of us know how well he can play with that.

Good point.

Terry Glenn is definitely going to try to come back.

For $5 million who wouldn't try to come back?

And even if he can't, if he's on the opening day roster, that money is guaranteed.

The fact is that he doesn't actually have to play to get paid. He just has to try.

He's only making $1.74 million next year.

I'd say there's an 80% chance he plays in week 1. From there it's week to week obviously.

I'm going to go 65-35 on him not only returning, but actually being healthy for the start of the year where he can play and hopefully make a difference for us.

I believe he's refering to the roster bonus he'll recieve after a certain date if he's on the roster.

I thought he had one of those this year, like last year, as well.

Even if he makes it out of camp, I think they will have to use him sparingly. I don't think he will last more than 3-4 games as an every down starter. Give him 15-20 snaps a game in key situations and maybe he will be useful and can contribute.

There isn't one this year that I'm aware of.

I hope he plays this year. I have no idea what the odds are.

I know I would barely play him in the preseason and maybe not at all.

Given the fact Jerry was trying to acquire a veteran WR opposite TO and still hasn't ruled out doing so this Summer, I'd say the odds are even if he comes back they are thinking of him as a #3 WR.

I say Terry Glenn is not on final roster. The wideouts will be:

1.) Terrell Owens
2.) Patrick Crayton
3.) Sam Hurd
4.) Isiah Stanback
5.) Danny Amendola
6.) Mike Jefferson , Mark Bradford or a veteran wideout:shoot6:

Really?

Where did I get $5 million from?

I am going to say very slim. I think he will try but I think during camp at some point he is going to realize that his future health is more important than 1 more season.
