Cowboys Trade for Cassel; Witten Status Uncertain
the cowboys starter and he’ll have to find a way to keep the cowboys alive while they wait 2 months for tony romo and dez bryant to return…. the cowboys picked up matt cassel in a trade with the bills… cassel is a journeyman and has started with the patriots, vikings and chiefs… but… he’ll be the third quarterback for now and jason garrett believes in brandon weeden… “brandon will not play exactl how tony plays. we don’t want him to play exactly how tony plays. we want brandon to play how brandon plays. we have a system of football that we believe in and we’re confident he can run it for us.” as if the cowboys don’t have enough injuries… jason witten’s status for sunday is up in the air… witten has 2 sprained ankles and a sprained knee… he was able to play through it on sunday and he’s getting treatment to try and play but we don’t know that he can… by the way, it’s likely to be kellen moore and not former utep qb jameill showers who the cowboys will call up from the practice squad to be the teams number 2 quarterback … a lot of people have been asking about that…
