Bengals S Roy Williams Wants To Retire A Dallas Cowboy

Safety Roy Williams has been a Cincinnati Bengal for a little more than a year. But he’ll consider himself a Dallas Cowboy for the rest of his life.

The Cowboys released Williams last offseason. When Jerry Jones informed the five-time Pro Bowler of the decision, the Cowboys’ owner asked if there was anything he could do for Williams.

“I want to retire as a Cowboy,” said Williams, who recalled the moment as he toured the Pro Football Hall of Fame a day before meeting his former team in the preseason opener.

Jones told Williams to consider it done. They agreed that Williams would sign a one-day contract with the Cowboys when he decided to retire, a ceremonious gesture Jones has given such players as Emmitt Smith and Larry Allen over the years.

Williams, who is entering his ninth NFL season, doesn’t know exactly when that day will come but acknowledged that the end of his career could be near.

If you want to retire a Cowboy than STAY a Cowboy! As far as I'm concerned if you are not a Cowboy at your retirement than you don't get to retire as a Cowboy. Smith did a lot for the Cowboys so he really deserves to come back and retire as one but all you other yahoos that think you deserve to, I say forget it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Emmitt was really a Viking when he retired if you want to get technical. I don't know what is with you others that want to so the same thing but I say TOO BAD!
