After signing a long-term contract extension that will likely keep him in Dallas for the rest of his career, Cowboys cornerback Terence Newman gave an interview to Mike Doocy of Fox 4 in Dallas. And in that interview, he had some critical things to say about a teammate who may not be in Dallas much longer.

When asked about safety Roy Williams, Newman started off by saying that Williams had shown talent in coverage earlier in his career, but then he veered off course and added, “He’s the same guy, I think, he just sometimes gets kind of a deer in the headlights reaction, some plays. . . .  He had a bad season last year, as far as coverage.”

Later in the interview, Newman again started off defending his teammate, only to criticize him again. When asked directly whether Williams hurt the team, Newman answered, “I definitely don’t think he’s a liability.” But then he added of Williams, “He’s got to keep his weight down and work in the weight room, getting stronger.”

Although Newman didn’t sound like he was trying to rip Williams, he did sound as though he wasn’t particularly impressed with Williams. That could be a sign that if Williams doesn’t last much longer with the Cowboys, his teammates won’t be terribly disappointed.

One person Newman is impressed with is fellow cornerback Pacman Jones. Said Newman of Jones, “The guy just seems cool as heck.”
