FRISCO, Texas — Two days after saying stand by, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones all but assured that wide receiver Odell Beckham will be joining the team for the playoffs, in what was his most definitive comment yet.
“Odell’s going to join us,” Jones told USA TODAY Sports on Thursday. “There’s a good chance he will, with the complete goal of getting ready for a playoff game or two, and then I’ll look to the future. But most of it being about now.”
“I’m hopeful we can get into some important games and have some Deion Sanders-type results,” Jones said. “Could this be possible to have a great player like that get in two or three playoff games and make some significant plays? I think very much so. That’s not an exaggerated thought at all.”
