Jerry Jones, the Cowboys’ owner, addressed the media after the win over the Giants on Thanksgiving.
Jones was unsurprisingly asked about Odell Jr. Beckham and the Cowboys’ interest in him.
Jones said that he had spoken to Beckham on Thursday. Jones would not reveal any details of their conversation.
“He would not characterize their conversation and said he was unsure whether Beckham will be healthy enough to play this season until he is more informed about his recovery from ACL surgery,” ESPN’s Ed Werder reported on Twitter.
Beckham is expected soon to pay a visit to the Cowboys.

Dak Prescott, Cowboys quarterback, has made it clear that he would like Beckham to join him.
“He knows how much I want him here, and a lot of the guys in this locker room have reached out on their own in different ways — to make sure he understands this is a team he can help. And we want him to come help,” Prescott said.
Beckham showed last season that he is still able to make a big impact as a playoff contender. Beckham may need to take some time to recover from the ACL injury.
