Cowboys 'Didn't Have the Money' for Derrick Henry amid Salary Cap, Stephen Jones Says

Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones revealed that the team didn't pursue four-time Pro Bowl running back Derrick Henry in free agency due to salary cap constraints.

"Our situation is just, you know, and no one ever wants to say it, but it's salary cap, and we just didn't have the money to allocate to that position in terms of where we were from a cap standpoint, knowing what we're looking at with Dak [Prescott] and certainly Micah [Parsons] and CeeDee Lamb," Jones said during an appearance on Mad Dog Radio (h/t Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk).
