A few hours ago I was blissfully cruising east at about 31,000 feet above the earth, leaving a wonderful week in Indianapolis for the NFL Scouting Combine behind me. I was looking forward to a quiet Friday afternoon — and more than a few salads — before getting back to the daily grind.
Then I landed and checked my phone.
Twitter was ablaze with the reporting that the Dallas Cowboys were going to look to trade wide receiver Amari Cooper, and potentially release him outright if a deal could not be reached.
