When someone in the audience shouted that Henry should have called Jerry Jones to get Parsons&#8217;s phone number Henry was quick with a response saying, &#8220;Jerry got my number blocked.

He was exactly where he was supposed to be. Year eight, nine of his career, still going for 1,800 yards, playoffs. He was exactly where he was supposed to be. I\u2019m happy that he didn\u2019t get ruined by us!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_ptj78njj2\">While this might not sound like something an owner would want a player saying about his team, it is in line with something\u00a0<a class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_aoxits\" href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/nfl\/jerry-jones-says-derrick-henry-wouldnt-be-having-career-year-with-cowboys\" data-uw-rm-brl=\"PR\" data-uw-original-href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/nfl\/jerry-jones-says-derrick-henry-wouldnt-be-having-career-year-with-cowboys\">Jerry Jones said in October about Henry<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_mgoryhign\">&#8220;In my mind, we\u2019re not playing very good football right now at all, and that\u2019s beyond whether or not we have Derrick Henry,\u201d Jones said Tuesday. \u201cDerrick is having a career year. I don\u2019t know if he\u2019d be having that career year in our situation, and that\u2019s really something you do have to look at. Because if he had not had as many carries as our running backs have had, then he certainly probably wouldn\u2019t have attained the level of impact he\u2019s had.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_70n94bcaa\">So it sounds like Jones, Parsons and Henry are all in agreement that it was best for Derrick Henry that he didn&#8217;t sign in Dallas. It&#8217;s probably not the kind of truth the fans in Dallas want to hear, but they should be used to that by now.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Micah Parsons and Derrick Henry recorded a podcast during Super Bowl week. \/ Bleacher Report \/ YouTub Derrick Henry was a guest on Micah Parsons&#8217;
