Cowboys trade for Kitna

By Micah Warren | Leave a Comment

The Dallas Cowboys have traded cornerback Anthony Henry to the Lions in exchange for QB Jon Kitna.
Henry started all 16 games last year and we think this is a good trade for both sides. On one hand, the Lions probably weren’t keeping Kitna anyway. Now, Dallas has a pretty good backup [...]
