Disgruntled Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Joe Horn would like to play for the Dallas Cowboys. Then again, who wouldn’t? Obviously the Cowboys seem to have all the pieces in place to make a Super Bowl run in 2008. Their entire training camp will be documented by HBO. And it’s simply becoming almost trendy to want to play for “America’s team” these days. Just ask Adam Jones, Chris Henry and Chad Johnson. Joe is no different:
“I would be in awe to play with an organization like that because I know that they’re at that next step of winning a Super Bowl. To come there and be on the other side of T.O. would be fabulous, but right now, that hasn’t happened. No conversations have been made and all that is speculation.”
The Falcons are favoring their younger receivers (Roddy White, Laurent Robinson, Michael Jenkins). But Joe feels he still has the ability to be a starter in the National Football League. At 36-years-old, I’m not so sure, but I know Joe can still play. And I happen to think he’s better than the Cowboys’ current #2 option Patrick Crayton. If Dallas is unsuccessful at resigning veteran receiver Terry Glenn, they might just be in the market for Joe’s experienced services. That is, if the asking price isn’t too high. Stay tuned.
