Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett was given the go-ahead to make his own changes to the coaching stay and they were not based on order from owner Jerry Jones, according to both Jones and his son, Stephen Jones. ‘Absolutely, we gave Jason that authority when the season ended,’ said Stephen Jones. ‘This was another disappointing ending and you just have let your head coach have that latitude. It’s not always going to be pretty, it’s going to hurt some feelings but you have to let Jason evaluate his staff and do what he believe is right. That’s what we did.’

The attorney for Miami Dolphins OG Richie Incognito said OT Jonathan Martin used texts that were just as vulgar as the language Incognito used against Martin. Martin allegedly sent texts to Incognito which ‘included threats to send someone over to Richie Incognito’s home with a ‘tranquilizer gun and sandpaper condoms’ to homosexually rape him’ and ‘another that said he would ‘kill (Richie’s) whole family.’ The attorney is also claiming that Martin didn’t raise concerns to the team about his bullying until his performance on the field slipped to the point where his roster spot would be in jeopardy.
