Recently, the Dallas Cowboys got a bit of bad news when it was announced that former Indianapolis Colts star linebacker Shaq Leonard would be signing with their NFC East Rivals, the Philadelphia Eagles. Many speculated that the Cowboys could be a possible match made in heaven for Leonard considering their status as potential Super Bowl contenders; however, Leonard ultimately opted to join another NFC powerhouse in the Eagles.

Recently, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones spoke on his reaction to Leonard's decision, even after the pair had recently met to discuss a potential signing.

“Well, of course, we very easily could see him out here against us Sunday [when the Cowboys play the Eagles],” said Jones on Shan & RJ (via Logan Mullen of Audacy). “I just have to almost step back when I think about man, these are the times we’re in when a player like that could be available and pick his team – which he can and does – and be on the field within three or four days. It’s just a unique period of time. Not in any way – if I sound like I’m complaining, I’m not – but that’s just unique to me to think he can hit the ground running and be out there playing against us Sunday.

“Certainly, on an individual basis, I wish him the best. He deserves that. He’s had a very distinguished career.”

The Cowboys might indeed be on the wrong end of Leonard's greatness this weekend when they host the Eagles in prime time on Sunday.
