Those are still the words of the agent, so hearsay. Nothing more than the agent saying what he needs to say regardless of how Zeke actually feels.
ummm, we have the "likes" buttons.pretend this is a useful button! (why do we not have a useful button Mods?)

DeMarco Murray did good there
What an amazing boss you’d be. I’m sure employees who feel disrespected and not valued are really going to bust their ass for you. They won’t and that’s why soooo many of the worlds top companies believe in valuing and respecting their employees.
I bet every single player on that team is with Zeke.
"Hey Emmitt, it's Jerry. Been working out lately? No, I already called Demarco."
Again, if an owner didn't honor the terms of a contract he would be sued in a heartbeat.
If the contract allows it to be ended early and has non-guaranteed money and the player signs it, that is NOT failing to honor the contract.
Philly first!Which is why he got paid in tennessee.
Philly first!
I have no doubt that Jerry was joking. That does not mean it was not stupid. Zeke has already shown himself to be immature and now we have a video of his teams owner in the middle of his holdout saying "Zeke who" He is going to feel some kind of way about that.
Jerry fucked up.
I still don't see where it says a player can violate the terms of his contract and ask for more money.The CBA makes it easier to hold out than to show up and leave
The agreement between player and team, and the agreement between all players and the league.
That broader agreement gives each player the right to skip training camp, with the understanding that he can be punished with expensive fine (many of which often are never actually collected). The Collective Bargaining Agreement could have been written in stronger terms, allowing the team to pursue a court order forcing the player to return or giving the team the right to shut the player down for the entire year if he doesn’t show up. Instead, the CBA authorizes teams only to fine a player who doesn’t show up — which necessarily authorizes all players to not show up.
Once a player shows up, everything changes. If he later leaves, the team can send him a “five-day letter,” which (obvious given the label) tells the player that if he doesn’t return within five days, he could be placed on the reserve/left squad list. Placement on the reserve/left squad list ends the player’s season, prevents him from playing for anyone (even if traded), and tolls the contract that he already doesn’t like for an entire year.
That’s why players almost never show up and then walk out. The CBA shifts the power to the team once the player reports for camp.

Why? Zeke is under contract and the Cowboys have all the leverage.Jerry Jones makes 'Zeke who?' joke after Tony Pollard's strong preseason performance
Jerry needs to keep his trap shut and just stop commenting already because eventually someone will catch you on camera saying something stupid......like now.
