Based on Jerry’s actions and decisions over the past two decades, a fan strongly doubts that it will happen.
Knowing Jerry these last 2 decades…. I highly doubt, so cowboys fans don’t get your hopes up!

While a fan says the Cowboys organization is aware that many people will be attracted to the team and spend money. They are using the large fanbase and media attention to their advantage.
They know a lot of people will flock to the Cowboys and put money down. That’s all. Taking advantage of a large fanbase with media attraction.

Someone advising, that won’t happen. The Cowboys are known to be very frugal and unlikely to make that kind of move (referring to signing Hopkins).
That ain't happening. Cowboys way too cheap to make that move
