ARLINGTON — Despite getting fired on Monday afternoon, former Dallas Cowboys head coach Wade Phillips kept his promise to attend a charity event Monday evening.
He didn’t say much, but he didn’t have to; just attending the One Heart Project kickoff event at Cowboys Stadium said something.
Phillips received a warm round of applause as he was announced at the fund-raiser that aims to give a second chance to at-risk and incarcerated youth.
Attendees said it took a lot of character for the former coach to show up at a public event on the same day he lost his Cowboys job.
