Dallas Cowboys receiver Roy Williams just wants his ring back. Not a Super Bowl ring of course (ha!), but his engagement ring.
According to a story from OAOnline.com, the former Lion filed a lawsuit last week asking for the ring he offered to former Miss Texas USA Brooke Daniels. The rock is reportedly valued at $76,000.
Williams apparently mailed the ring to Daniels along with a recorded marriage proposal. He also included $5,000 for school and dental bills and a baseball for her brother. She rejected the proposal and has not returned the ring.
Williams and Daniels dated for nearly a year.
Michael Daniels, Brooke's father and a co-defendant in the lawsuit, has said he has possession of the ring and plans to return it to avoid further legal issues.
An injunction hearing is set for Friday in Odessa, Texas.
