According to ESPN.com, during a Tuesday afternoon conference call with reporters, Cleveland Browns linebacker Scott Fujita called Cowboys owner Jerry Jones "irresponsible" for some comments he made about the labor situation.
Fujita, who played for the Cowboys in 2005, feels like the owners are not on the same page.
"The perfect example is Jerry Jones and he said a lockout would not be devastating for players, fans communities, our support staff [and] everyone involved," Fujita said. "For him to say something like that to me is one of the more irresponsible things I've heard through this whole process. Unfortunately that's just where it's at."
Fujita, who is a member of the NFLPA Executive Committee, said he thinks the situation is complicated.
"Sometimes you get the sense that the owners really are not all that unified in this whole thing," he said. "I think on one hand the commissioner has got some heat on him to get a deal done and I think he's going to feel that heat more and more from the fans especially. But I think a lot of people are fine letting this thing run down at least until the 11th hour and again try to squeeze the players into accepting a deal that's not fair to us."
