The Cowboys have discussed signing Daryl Washington and the interest is apparently mutual. In a conversation with Charean Williams of PFT, Washington made the case for why Dallas should sign him.

“Why not be a Cowboy?” Washington said. “I’m settled in here. It’s home. Let’s try to get one this year. Come on Mr. [Jerry] Jones, you’ll be glad you took a chance on me. We’ll hold up that Lombardi Trophy together.”
Washington has yet to work out for the Cowboys, but Williams hears that the team is still doing its due diligence on the linebacker. After learning that pass rusher David Irving is facing a four-game ban for PEDs, Washington could be a low-cost boost for the front seven, but the Cowboys will want to first glean that he is in football shape. For his part, Washington says that he is the same size (235 pounds) that he was in Arizona and believes that he can be the same type of player even though he has been out of the game for years.
Washington has not played a down of football since the 2013 season, but he accepts responsibility for his own predicament.
“I take full responsibility for everything I went through,” Washington said. “I don’t blame anybody. But I’m not here to talk about it; I’m here to show you what type of person I am now and where I’m trying to go.”
How many cowboys have been suspended for some sort of drug use? Maybe look into that horrible regime in texas.
If you had to live in Texas where weed is illegal then you’d probably have to abuse some other sort of drug
Yesh they should be put to death for smoking the devil’s lettuce
Plus I wouldn’t be a cowboy if they ten BILLION
Floridaman you wouldn’t be a Cowboy or ten billion anything you illiterate fudge
Worth a workout. Maybe get lucky.
I agree
Pass. Imagine the cowboys also pass. They had enough with Hardy a few years ago
I love the Cowboys but they have made some questionable moves when it comes to bringing in players with off the field baggage. They brought in Greg Hardy after he was let go by the panthers after he was charged with DV, they have Randy Gregory who I guess is off somewhere smoking weed and not responding to the NFL’s calls, they had McClain who was charged for carrying illegal firearms, they have Collins who was accused of murder a week before the draft(that was a completely false claim and he was found to have no role in the crime but the Cowboys still took a shot with him not knowing what his future was at that time) they have Zeek and his investigation(even though I personally think he is innocent) and they just drafted Jordan Lewis who has been accused of sexual assault and they don’t know what’s going to happen to him and I bet if Conely was still on the bored when the Cowboys picked his off the field stuff would have been overlooked too. All in all they should start looking past the talent and looking at the player as a person as well because you want someone who can stay on the field and help your team win and be liked by his teammates more than someone who you bring in only to end up getting suspended for something and not being liked by his teammates and creates issues in the locker room. There is more to an athlete than what he brings to the field but it seems some teams have had a harder time realizing that
I live in Houston and Dallas problem is that they need a new owner that stands strong not turn a blind eye jones made all his money in Nat. Gas not Football even though he was a good collage player at UA along with Clinton and jimmy Johnson
