Former Dallas quarterback Quincy Carter says he feels free to speak out now about his release from the Dallas Cowboys.
Carter says the team lied about why they let him go and used one failed drug test against him and never let him defend himself.
Carter claims there is a lost tape where Jerry Jones says he's not releasing him because of his play. He says Jones pulled a "billionaire power play" and had the NFL lose the tape. Carter says if he had not been released he would have led the team to success and Tony Romo wouldnt even be there.
Coach Bill Parcells said at the time that the reason he was released was not limited to but included his drug use.
Carter has subsequently failed more drug tests and been arrested on drunk driving and drug charges.
He was also diagnosed with bipolar disorder.
His release is currently under arbitration with the NFLPA.

It seems that at the time I remember some discrepancy between what Parcells said and what Jones said. Parcells also said Carter couldnt take leadership of the team.
At the time my brother liked Carter but I always said Carter was dumber than a doorknob. He made some incredibly stupid decisions.
Looking back, I am not sure if his poor play was related entirely to his drug use or not. It most certainly affected it.
At any rate, Carter is very delusional. His bipolar disorder certainly shows up. He also needs help. He is a very ill man.
He thinks he is coming back to the NFL
