Fans and Cowboys supporters just shook their heads in disbelief when it was revealed that McFadden would start training camp on the physically unable to perform list with a hamstring injury.
McFadden has missed 29 games and has suffered 15 injuries in his NFL career, yet he wants his critics to know that he’s not just collecting a check.
“People feel like I am just collecting a check,” McFadden, 27, said. “But it’s just something I don’t even pay attention to. I know the type of guy I am. I know what type of player I am. So anything outside these four walls, I don’t even pay attention to it. It’s hard to at times. But at the same time you have to be a pro about it and I know how to approach the game. I know what I can do when I am on the field.”
McFadden signed with Dallas in March after DeMarco Murray accepted a huge contract from the Philadelphia Eagles.
