After a bizarre mixup led to his release from the Cowboys, Lucky Whitehead‘s agent says he is not interested in a return to Dallas. David Rich told Mike Florio of PFT that his client is hurt by the events that transpired earlier this week. 
“I can’t speak for Lucky, we’d have to have a conversation about it because he loved being a Cowboy so much. I can’t put into words — this dude loved it, loved it as much as I’ve ever had a player love an organization. Loved it,” Rich said. “This guy was arguably the most popular player on the team, which is interesting to have this happen to him, but I don’t think so. . . . [Whitehead and coach Jason Garrett] basically sat across the table, eye to eye, man to man, and he said, ‘I need you to believe me, coach.’ And they said, ‘We think you’re a liar.’”
Whitehead is now on waivers and the league’s 31 other teams will have an opportunity to claim him this afternoon. Even if everyone passes on him, it doesn’t sound like we should expect a reunion for Whitehead and the Cowboys.
It sounds like the Cowboys probably aren’t looking to re-sign Whitehead anyway, choosing instead to move on from the situation as quickly as possible. Coaches reportedly have had issues with Whitehead in the past and fourth-round pick Ryan Switzer figures to handle a lot of Whitehead’s responsibilities this season.
I think the Cowboys are just trying to come up with excuses
Your just another hater
They tried to act like they’re doing the right thing but the reality is he wasn’t going to make the roster anyway. If they always did the right thing they would have to cut a lot of players with all the felons Jerry Jones employs.
name one convicted felon on the team?
Why all this drama for a guy at the ass-end of the roster? Who cares.
Only because the Cowboys have such a track record of keeping guys who get into trouble off of the field, and now they cut a guy who didn’t do anything because the team didn’t bother to look into the situation. Whitehead has a history and maybe doesn’t make the team anyways, but this is a terrible look for the team. The Cowboys are handling this about as publicly and poorly as possible.
agree with this
“arguably the most popular player on the team…” What?!
I believe he meant popular in the locker room w/ other players
Only because it’s the Cowboys is this story being blown up even more.
