Despite the fact that his play has been sub par at best since signing a five-year, $50.1 million contract with the Dallas Cowboys in 2012, cornerback Brandon Carr has a message for the rest of the NFL.
He and the Dallas Cowboys are going to “take over the league” this year.
“I’m trying to take over the league,” Carr told the Star-Telegram. “I get emotional when I say that because I’m dead serious, man. I’ve been playing this game for six years now, and I’m just ready to make that jump and become that shutdown corner.”
Carr said he expects to shut down the opposing teams No. 1 wide receiver.
“That’s the plan,” Carr said. “As this thing gets on a run, we’ll see how it shakes out, but we just want to be in a position to win ballgames. We felt like we disappointed ourselves last year. We’ve got a big chip on our shoulders. But last year is the past, and it’s time for us to clean the slate and get ready to play this year.”
