Randy Gregory Remains In “Good Standing” With NFL, Despite Talk Of Trouble Ahead

Update:

Cowboys executive VP Stephen Jones was asked Monday about the talk that there could be more trouble ahead for DE Randy Gregory.

“The team doesn’t hear until its time,” Jones said, per Jon Machota. “We don’t get on the inside of any of that, unfortunately. We just get to hear when unfortunately there’s not good news. Right now we don’t know of anything.”

A Cowboys source tells Jean-Jacques Taylor that DE Randy Gregory remains in “good standing” with NFL, despite the talk that trouble could be in the horizon for him.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told reporters after Sunday’s preseason game that they’re taking Gregory’s off the field issues are a day to day thing.

“Let’s just put it like this, his deal is day-to-day,” Jones said, via the Dallas Morning News. “Randy came into this league as an outstanding player, there’s no question about his talent. Having said that, we’ve just got to continue to work. …We wouldn’t have put him out there if we couldn’t plan on him.

“You saw it tonight and you’ve seen in his other work really this entire training camp that he gives us some real additional pressure.”

Jones added that he expects Gregory to play in their season opener and isn’t aware of any issues around the corner for the defensive end, per Mike Fisher.

Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports is hearing that there could be “more trouble ahead” for Cowboys DE Randy Gregory.

Gregory worked pretty hard to earn his reinstatement from the league last month and the Cowboys elected to stand by him and maintained that he’s part of their plans moving forward.

Gregory, 25, is a former second-round pick of the Cowboys back in 2015. He’s currently in the final year of his four-year, $3.814 million contract that includes $1.404 million guaranteed and stands to make a base salary of $705,000 for the 2018 season.

Gregory wound up missing the entire 2017 season while serving a suspension for another failed drug test.

In 2016, Gregory appeared in two games for the Cowboys and recorded nine tackles and a sack.
