Tag : Phone Receiver

Wide receiver Terry Glenn is speaking with Dallas Cowboys officialsagain in the hopes of returning.

Cowboys' owner Jerry Jones said he's spoken to Glenn and his agent,James Gould.

"Terry is someone I have a lot of interest in," Jonessaid Friday night. "We worked well together last year. We willsit down here and look at how he fits and what we can do with himas a player this year."

Glenn has refused to sign an injury waiver that would give him$500,000 if he re-injures his right knee, so Glenn has missed allmandatory and voluntary on-field practices this off-season. TheCowboys told him he could not practice with the team without thewaiver.

Gould was fired by a frustrated Glenn, who didn't return phone andtext messages from team officials the last few weeks. Gould hasbeen since rehired.

Glenn lashed out at team officials, even asking the team to releasehim. But Glenn has changed his mind and said he doesn't want to getinto a confrontation with Jones.

Glenn, who is scheduled to make $1.74 million in base salary thisseason, has reached out to Jones and spoken with wide receiverscoach Ray Sherman.

"It isn't my will against Terry's," Jones said."That's ridiculous."

The Cowboys hope to settle the Glenn situation by training camp inlate July, so Jones said it ends any search for a veteran wide out.

Glenn played in one regular-season game last season because of twoknee surgeries. Doctors told Glenn he needs microfracture surgery,but the receiver said an MRI taken a few weeks ago revealed hisknee is fine.
