With the NFL season now over, there is plenty of discussion as to whether or not stealing signals from the sideline is actually cheating. Indianapolis Colts head coach Tony Dungy doesn’t think so.
Stories of the New England Patriots cheating almost always come up whenever someone tries to knock the team’s legacy. Those stories spread to the Indianapolis Colts earlier this week when Hall of Famer and NFL Network analyst claimed that former head coach Tony Dungy used to steal signals and that no one did anything despite it being well known throughout the NFL.
Dungy quickly fired back by admitting that they did indeed steal signals, but that it’s not illegal and that just about every NFL team does this to some extent. It’s led to a bit of an overblown story, mostly because countless NFL personnel have come out saying that this is something everyone does, but it has led to an interesting debate nevertheless.
Meanwhile, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo continues to show up in trade rumors surrounding multiple NFL teams. Now that Dak Prescott has established himself as the quarterback of the future in Dallas, Romo is looking for opportunities to play elsewhere. ESPN created a cool piece showcasing all of the places that Romo could wind up, including Buffalo, Kansas City, Denver and a number of other teams.
There’s still plenty of time before the 2017 season begins, and the rumors are going to continue to swirl around Romo until a move is made.
