tight end for the Houston Texans When Dalton Schultz discussed his time with the Dallas Cowboys, he wasn’t exactly kind.
Schultz signed a new three-year contract with the Texans earlier this week, and he talked about it on Thursday’s episode of “The Pat McAfee Show.” When questioned about the distinctions between playing for the Cowboys and the Texans, Schultz was forthright in his evaluation of the Dallas atmosphere.
“Just football is the focus, you understand?” According to CBS Sports’ Jared Dubin, Schultz stated. “A lot of people are surprised by what I’m going to share about my experiences visiting the Cowboys practice facility and game day, where I describe some of the relationships and everyday stuff that you witness. “Holy crap,” they exclaim. That takes place at a practice facility, really? You arrive in a location like this and assume everything is normal.
“Dude, it’s like a zoo.” While doing power cleans or anything, there are people tapping on the window to draw people’s attention. It is distinct. There is nothing wrong with that because it is their established brand, what Jerry Jones enjoys, and how they do business. You never know how many eyes there are in the locker room or how much the very act of being in the building can distract you until you walk someplace else and realize, “Holy crap, there’s none of that.”
Schultz’s remarks appear to be intended more as an explanation of the numerous distractions that come with being a Cowboys player and how they can be an issue than as a critique. It’s obvious that it’s not for everyone, and Schultz didn’t seem to appreciate being in that setting. It seems to function just fine for some other players who don’t wish to go elsewhere.
Although Schultz was successful in Dallas, he continued the trend with Houston in the previous campaign. With 59 receptions, he gained 635 yards and five touchdowns.
