NFL: I Would Take $5M Less To Keep Murray Says Romo

Eagles running back DeMarco Murray was really hoping to remain with the Cowboys this offseason. So much so, he asked quarterback Tony Romo to take a pay cut to remain with the team, Romo said on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas on Tuesday, per the Dallas Morning News.

"DeMarco ended up asking me, 'Why don't you take a pay cut?' I said, 'I will. I would take a pay cut to go do this,'" Romo said. "I was like, 'They're going to restructure me.' That's the same thing in some ways, just for the salary cap purposes. He was like, 'OK, now we're back to being friends again.' I would take $5 million less if it meant getting him back.

GOOD WILL!!! Cowboy's DeMarco Murray Thrills 3 Young Brothers Who Lost Home To Fire

Two months ago, Jake, Will and Brock Livermore -- three brothers between the ages of 7 and 14 -- watched their house go up in flames during a house fire that destroyed everything, including their beloved Dallas Cowboys memorabilia.

Cowboys running back DeMarco Murray heard the brothers' story and decided to give the three boys the thrill of a lifetime this week. Murray invited the brothers to an event in Plano, Texas on Tuesday and gave them VIP treatment. The event was hosted by the Cowboys and watch company Hublot.
