He did not. It was a gripping interview. I've never heard him that cagey when asked specific questions. He was asked if what others saw was criminal. He responded that the Cowboys don't want it getting out, and would go no further.
Hm, Mike Florio did/said the exact same thing last Friday:

I didn't listen to Schefter (do you have a link?) but Florio definitely sounded "cagey" as well, to use your term.

I don't think anyone in the public sphere has any idea yet. People keep saying the same thing. It's just "some story." There's a video tape, maybe. But I haven't heard any speculation or anything on what it shows.

All that has been said is that it has "Ray Rice-level" implications.

The only logical reason I can think of for the Browns signing Josh McCown is so
the infamous jersey can have both McCown brothers listed on it.

That, and Hoyer is probably out.

I knew those terrible deals for Calvin Johnson and Matthew Stafford would come back to bite them in the ass.

Some of it was due to with the luck (both good and bad, in different ways) of hitting with top five picks from those ridiculous old CBA rookie deals. But more of it was the Lions continually restructuring those deals to make it worse. That's how Suh's cap number ballooned so much that franchise tagging him wasn't going to be anywhere feasible to do.

Also, that's too much money invested in a wide receiver.

Finally, something interesting in the offseason. Chip sure likes his old players.

I don't think that move makes much sense for the Bills.

I'm still thinking about my opinion on this. The Eagles' intention is pretty straightforward, but here's how I think it can make sense for the Bills:
--1) Their defense was pretty damn good even without Alonso. (lost for the year with an ACL)
--2) RB is a legit need with Spiller on his way out and who knows how much longer Fred Jackson can go.
--3) They have one of the worst QB situations in the league, and it's unlikely that they can significantly improve it considering that the FA market for QBs is terrible as usual, and they don't have a first round pick this year due to the Sammy Watkins trade.
Given that, at least for the short term I can see them having a heavy run-based offense paired with a stiff defense to win games. And if we account for age McCoy might arguably be the best RB in the game, so at least they got a good one.
Now I'll leave the floor open for Mecca, as I'm sure he'll have better points on this than I will.

Now the question becomes who will play RB for the Eagles. Might they look at Reggie Bush?
