Antonio Brown has not been a part of the NFL since his walkout last year. The Buccaneers did not show any eagerness to get Brown back. However, the notorious WR showed interest in joining the Dallas Cowboys earlier this year in March. The Cowboys face wide receiver woes, but Jones is adamant about not signing any veteran wide receivers this time and wants to bank on his rookie WR.

In addition, the 4x Pro-Bowler, Antonio Brown, made a statement that showed his zeal to play with the Cowboys. Brown indicated he wants to play for the Cowboys in March.

Further, earlier in August, Brown reiterated his mission to play for the Cowboys and said, “Tell Jerry Jones to call me.” However, there has been no response from Jerry’s end after he made it clear that the Cowboys won’t sign any veteran WRs. This closed doors on many players looking for a contract, including the rumors surrounding Odell Beckham Jr. joining America’s team.

As CeeDee Lamb is expected to start for the Cowboys, Jones said, “I’m plenty satisfied. There is no urgency looking for a veteran receiver.” Reflecting on Gallup and Washington recovering from their respective injuries, Jones has no interest in signing any wide receiver.
