  • Intro:

    Dallas Cowboys coach Jason Garrett announced on Wednesday that Michael Sam had been named to the team's practice squad.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Michael Sam:

    "I'm trying to help the Cowboys any way I can so I can earn a spot on this team and help our team win games.

    REPORTER: And how do you do that? What are some of the specific things you need to show?

    SAM: Anything I can - special teams, left end, right end, whatever. You want me to hold the ball I'll do it to perfection."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Michael Sam:

    "This is Jerry's team and he wants everything right and I'm here to do what I can to, like I said, earn a spot on this team?

    REPORTER: How did your first talk with Jerry go?

    SAM: No, I have not talked to Mr. Jones yet. I spoke to his son, Stephen Jones, and it went great - he's excited, I'm excited, hopefully the coaches and the team are excited too."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Michael Sam:

    "Like I said anyway I can use my speed or anything I learned in St. Louis - anything I can do to help this team win games. I'm hungry to be on the team and help the team win and I'm sure Dallas wants to win as well."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Michael Sam:

    "The veteran guys, Tony Romo, the quarterback, said, 'Hey, welcome. Now let's get to work,' (Jason) Witten came to me saying pretty much the same thing. These guys, it's about football. They want to win. They think I can help them win and that's what I'm going to do."
