The NFL on Tuesday outlined a series of conditions Brent must meet to be eligible to play when the Cowboys return from their bye week in November.

On the West Coast, the Seahawks and Buccaneers were locked in a shootout — and the game was decided in overtime.

Nfl Team Wanted Giants Qb Daniel Jones To Work Out As Tight End At Combine Report Says

Why? The report says because the unidentified team’s execs “didn’t think he was good enough to be an NFL starting QB.” Ouch. Granted, that is just one team’s alleged opinion. Still, it’s yet more ammunition for fans and NFL analysts who thought the Giants greatly overreached by picking Jones so high. He was the second quarterback selected, behind No. 1 overall pick Kyler Murray. Most draft predictions had Jones as a likely first-round pick, but further down the board, and behind Ohio State’s Dwayne Haskins and possibly Missouri’s Drew Lock....
