Dallas Cowboys BREAKING: DeMarcus Ware To Ring of Honor on Sunday vs. Rams

FRISCO - DeMarcus Ware is coming "home'' ... with AT&T Stadium as his forever place of residence. The Dallas Cowboys legend, who this summer entered the Pro Football Hall of Fame, will on NFL Week 8 on Sunday be inducted into the Cowboys Ring of Honor.

"Canton was great, but this is my home and my dad (team owner Jerry Jones) that I played for," Ware said. "I did enough, which is one of the coolest things to say up here, but that's my statement, still at a loss for words."

"I did enough'' has become a Ware mantra, and indeed he did. Ware spent nine of his 12 NFL seasons in Dallas, owns the franchise sack record and was inducted into the Hall of Fame earlier this month, the capper on a grand career.

But being immortalized as a Cowboys is obviously special, too. 

Ware made an immediate impact on the Cowboys' defense and organization, racking up eight sacks in his rookie campaign. That was just the start of Ware's magnificent 117-sack Cowboys career in which he rattled off seven consecutive Pro Bowl seasons from 2006-12.

It isn't just an honor to Ware that he's being immortalized, but also an honor to the Cowboys' organization to have him be a part of it, Jones said.

Jones said Ware met all four of his criteria to become the 23rd overall member and 20th player inducted into the franchise's Ring of Honor.

"I emphasize player, I emphasize ambassador, I emphasize future and, more importantly, I emphasize the person," Jones said.

Ware said he now plans to be a personal fixture at AT&T Stadium.

"I probably will go to (most) every single game, have my gold jacket on. I'm going to strut that around," Ware said. "I'm going to have my ring on, and I'm going to be the biggest Dallas Cowboy fan you've ever seen."
