I think I might have to go with Jerruh on this one. The Cowboys and Terry Glenn are in a spat right now over Glenn’s knee. Jerruh might have had the best line saying, “I paid him $5 million last year and we got four plays.” She Glenn had two knee operations last year and his season went to crap. So after dishing out big money for no production, Jerry’s understandably upset. Now he wants Glenn to sign a waiver saying he’ll only get $500k instead of his $1.75 million if his knee gets hurt again. Glenn doesn’t want to sign, saying that’s bullcrap, and has instead asked for his release. While Jerruh got in a good zinger, Glenn came back with one of his own:
“I want who I’m playing for to want me to be playing for them. .. I will get my freedom and play for someone who didn’t talk me into postponing surgery last season and then hold it over my head the next.”
Well yeah, they asked you to postpone it because they wanted some production from you this year, what do you expect? And for the record, when the story did come out, it was that Glenn decided to postpone the surgery, not that the team asked him to do so. But yeah, I’ll go with Jerruh on this one. Glenn apparently collected big bucks last year for doing nothing, maybe he should feel indebted to the team. Would a guy coming off two knee surgeries who can’t pass a physical get more than $500k from another team? Well, there are the Raiders, and they could use another receiver right about now.

I don’t get it, cut the guy already! They have a good crew of pass catchers: Owens, Crayton, Hurd, Amendola, Stanback, Witten, Bennett. Nobodies like Hurd-Amen and Stan have done well so far in camps. I’m happy with what we got.
