The Dallas Cowboys’ lack of activity in free agency, especially with regard to star running back Derrick Henry, who had a fantastic game against a Cowboys team in need of answers, left fans haunted on Sunday.
Henry, who was connected to the Cowboys for a large portion of the offseason, appeared to be the Derrick Henry of old, scoring two touchdowns and gaining 151 yards on 25 attempts as the Ravens secured a much-needed victory, 28-25.
The match on Sunday was a get-right The Ravens and Henry both had a lot to learn from their encounter on Sunday. On the other hand, the Cowboys, and particularly owner Jerry Jones, were left wondering why they were unable to sign Henry this summer.
Reporters questioned Jones about why the team did not sign Henry in the end, and he responded that they just could not afford it, comparing the issue to “why someone can not buy a mansion” when they reside in a “different kind of home.”
After the game, the owner of the Cowboys informed reporters, “We could not afford Derrick Henry.” “I am not sure why, but you live in a different kind of house; why can not you buy a mansion? It was out of our budget. That does not fit together at all.
