After Derrick Henry gashed the RB-thin Cowboys on Sunday, Jerry Jones insisted they 'couldn't afford' the former All-Pro in free agency.
Dallas' run game struggled last season, and it doesn't appear that the decision to replace Tony Pollard by bringing back Ezekiel Elliott — while several other veteran running backs were available in free agency this offseason — is working out. In Week 3, Baltimore jumped out to a 28-6 lead vs. Dallas thanks in large part to Derrick Henry, adding insult to injury.
'They can come back and have a great game against you. But bottom line is, we couldn't afford Derrick Henry.' Jones faced intense scrutiny for how Dallas approached this past offseason after the organization dragged out contract extension negotiations with star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb and quarterback Dak Prescott, failing to agree to new deals with their two offensive cornerstones until just before the start of the regular season.
