Crayton has chance to prove his worth
DeSoto's Patrick Crayton proved himself as one of the most effective No. 3 receivers in the league last season. He's not satisfied.
"I think I have to prove a little bit to some of the naysayers and some of the doubters," Crayton said, "because they are out there."
Crayton doesn't consider Jerry a naysayer or doubter, but Crayton acknowledged that he has a lot to prove to the boss, too. Jerry slapped a second-round tender on Crayton to keep him a Cowboy this season. Crayton will be an unrestricted free agent during the off-season.
With T.O. and Terry Glenn getting up there in the years, the Cowboys have to figure out whether Crayton can be a long-term solution as a starter. Crayton knows it, and he sees an opportunity to make a case while Glenn is sidelined during the preseason.
"The offense never misses a beat," Crayton said. "That's what we have to prove."
