Former Dallas Cowboys offensive lineman Nate Newton has issued a strong warning regarding Hall of Fame quarterback Troy Aikman's potential involvement with the franchise, according to a report from Yahoo Sports on Saturday.
Newton, a six-time Pro Bowler who played for Dallas from 1986 to 1998, expressed concerns about Aikman's rumored plans to join the Cowboys in an unspecified capacity. The warning comes amid speculation that Aikman, currently a lead analyst for ESPN's Monday Night Football, may seek a more direct role with the team he led to three Super Bowl victories in the 1990s.
Neither the Cowboys organization nor Aikman's representatives have officially commented on the matter. Newton's remarks highlight the ongoing debate among former players about the direction of the franchise under owner Jerry Jones.
