The Dallas Cowboys are enjoying the final few weeks of the offseason’s “dead period” before heading to Oxnard, California, for the start of training camp.
But while everyone waits for the players to return to the field after a brief hiatus, it seems like people are getting bored.
Some completely outlandish rumors have been making the rounds, and because a Dallas Cowboys offseason wouldn’t be complete without any drama, America’s Team is at the center of the biggest ones.
There was a rumor that Dak Prescott is “not 100 percent” and recently underwent an MRI, but this latest rumor makes the Dak discourse seem like small potatoes.
According to FOX Sports 1 host Craig Carton, Cowboys owner/general manager Jerry Jones could be selling the team. Carton claims that Jerry could be gearing up to unload the Cowboys onto a group of investors from Saudi Arabia.
“I think they’re going to sell the team,” Carton said. “I would not be surprised if we start hearing rumblings that Jerry Jones is going after hedge funds in Saudi Arabia and Abu Dhabi, trying to find the suitor to give him the largest check ever given to the owner of a North American sports franchise.”
Now, let’s be very clear: there is zero evidence to back up Carton’s claims.
Like another talking head on FOX Sports 1, Carton has been known for spewing nonsense that he couldn’t possibly believe himself. Yet, the network continues to platform him, and we have to hear these fan-fiction tales.
