Jeffery Simmons Jersey . Speaking with 105.3 The Fan, a CBS Sports Radio station, Jones indicated the team will not give up on Gregory, and could be facing a yearlong suspension after Jones even called him the Cowboys' "ugly baby." "As long as Randy Gregory is as conscientious, but I'm not going to get into what is the known about dependence and substance relative to well-being, people having relapses," Jones said. "
Breon Borders Jersey It's a fact of life. He's a young guy. And certainly he's got those challenges. He's our maybe, maybe an ugly baby, but he's our baby."Since entering the league as a second-round pick in 2015, Gregory has appeared in only 12 games, all in his rookie year. He's yet to notch a sack. In February, Gregory was suspended for the first four games of the 2016 season "He's got gifts. He understands he has gifts, God's gifts," in May. "He's got great human skills, personality. He is nothing short of brilliant. Certainly he has his demons. A lack of understanding of where he is is not one of them."We pray for him. We want him to him to have the kind of career his gifts would allow him to have, which is as an exceptional, exceptional football player. He is probably the top rusher in the last two drafts. We need him. We want to get him back."But the i sues didn't stop there. In September, Gregory was hit with a 10

Even if Gregory were out until Week 1 of next season -- he hasn't played all year, so expecting him to be game-ready likely is unrealistic -- his return to a blo soming team would be an added offseason bonus. Yet that might not happen. Gregory reportedly failed another drug test, which means his next suspension would be for one year. That would keep him out for the remainder of this
