Cowboys fans have big complaint about DeMarcus Ware’s Hall of Fame display
DeMarcus Ware was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame this past week, but Dallas Cowboys fans are feeling a bit slighted after seeing the legendary pass-rusher’s display in Canton.
A photo of Ware’s exhibit went viral on social media after fans noticed a surprising lack of Cowboys memorabilia in it. Ware’s Denver Broncos jersey features prominently, and there is plenty from his college career at Troy. The only evidence of his time with the Cowboys, however, is a game ball recognizing him as the franchise’s all-time sacks leader.
This feels wrong… @ProFootballHOF

Cowboys fans did not take kindly to this.

Definitely should be something Cowboys in there, more than a game hall. Yea he won his ring in Denver but he had his HOF career in Dallas https://t.co/Kn14bKIW2X

Not having any Cowboys stuff in there should be a crime https://t.co/U7vcN6G6rF

Ware spent the first nine seasons of his 12-year career with Dallas. All four of his All-Pro selections came with the Cowboys, as did 117 of his 138.5 career sacks. Obviously, most of his accomplishments came wearing a Dallas uniform. However, he won his lone Super Bowl title during his stint with the Broncos, which no doubt makes a big difference here.
Ware did closely associate himself with the Broncos, but he clearly does not bear any ill will toward the Cowboys. It is a bit surprising to see them represented so minimally, but he did win his biggest career hardware elsewhere.
