Cowboys' Jerry Jones Talks Shaquille Leonard's Eagles Contract: 'I Wish Him the Best'

Veteran linebacker Shaquille Leonard took a visit with the Dallas Cowboys before ultimately deciding to sign with the team currently atop the NFC East standings, the Philadelphia Eagles.

But there were no hard feelings from Dallas owner Jerry Jones, as he said during a Tuesday appearance on 105.3 The Fan (h/t Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk):

"Certainly, on an individual basis, I wish him the best. He deserves that. He's had a very distinguished career. There was absolutely never any money mentioned. I met with him, had lunch with him and had a good visit with him, but there was never a financial issue at all.
