Drew Henson should have played football

Drew Henson was 
26 when the Cowboys released him in August 2006.   Henson started only one game in Dallas, filling in for the injured Vinny Testaverde on Thanksgiving Day 2004.     Testaverde took over after halftime and that was it for Henson as a Dallas Cowboy.

What an amazing story.   Henson decided to play baseball and signed with the Yankees.   After 3 years in the minors, ARod was playing third base in New York so Henson decided to play football.

Henson never lived up to expectations in baseball or football.   It's a shame!   He had all of the natural tools but I think that he made a mistake by playing baseball rather than going directly to the NFL after college.
