Former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Patrick Crayton was interviewed on KESN-FM radio to discuss his trade to the San Diego Chargers. Here are some highlights:
As training camp was going on, were things going good? Did you think you wouldn’t be a member of the Cowboys at any point?
Yes, there wasn't even any doubt in my mind that I'd be wearing the star this year. But things change.
Why did things change?
I guess they thought about calling some teams and fielding some calls from some teams, proposing stuff, and they just let me know. I was like, OK, maybe this time it'll happen.
You mentioned also you're glad it happened. What did you mean by that?
Glad that it's over so I can now know what needs to be focused on. I'm going to a contender, been given a shot to go out there, be the number to contribute. I'll get to know my role as I did out here.
The offense is very similar to ours, so it shouldn't be long before I get in there and get comfortable with the offense. It may be a little bit different.
It's just a relief. No more not knowing what's going to go on. The family is at ease now. It was stressing my wife out.
