JERRY JONES: COWBOYS WON’T TRADE FOR A RECEIVER

The Dallas Cowboys already have one Roy Williams on the roster, and Cowboys owner Jerry Jones says they won’t be adding another.
Jones tells Peter King of Sports Illustrated that the Cowboys won’t be swinging a deal with the Lions to add wide receiver Roy Williams — and they won’t be swinging a deal with any other team to add any other receiver, either.
“We have no plans to trade for a receiver before the trading deadline,” Jones said on Sunday afternoon.
When King asked again, directly, whether there would be a trade for a receiver, Jones again said there would not be.
“No,” Jones said. “No trade for a receiver.”
Williams, who holds the distinction of being a Matt Millen draft pick who didn’t bust, is reportedly on the block, if there’s a team willing to pay the Lions a high price for his services. Jones, however, says the Cowboys won’t be that team.
