The Facts:
According to Glenn, the team has asked him to sign a $500,000 injury settlement -- relieving them of any further obligation if he is sidelined for the season due to his surgically repaired right knee. If Glenn was injured without the waiver, the team would be on the hook for his entire 2008 salary of $1.74 million.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
So far, Glenn has declined to sign the waiver and has not been allowed to participate in the "organized team activity" workouts the past two weeks. For the Cowboys, its simply a business decision. For Glenn, it's evidence that the Cowboys are not as confident in his recovery and rehab as they say they are. Glenn missed 15 games last season after undergoing two arthroscopic knee surgeries and team doctors believe he will ultimately need microfracture surgery to repair the injury. The question is whether he can make it through one more season or not.
