The surgery that the former Cowboys CB was undergoing involves a procedure to repair a football-caused toe deformity.
While encouraging his players with a rallying cry and demanding more, he states, “Fellas, let’s go get it, let’s want it, let’s believe it, that it’s real and let’s go take advantage of the opportunity that we have. I will not be there today, but I guarantee you, God, as my witness … I’ll be back tomorrow.”
