"Tight end Martellus Bennett might be the first Dallas Cowboys player to feel the wrath of the team's new get-tough plan.
The Cowboys are looking into ways to discipline and/or fine Martellus Bennett for a profanity-laced YouTube video he put out earlier this week on his own channel Marty B TV, according to two sources.
In the video, Bennett did a freestyle rap with Dessie Brown to the song "Get Money" where he used profanity and invoked the names of owner Jerry Jones, tight end Jason Witten and quarterback Tony Romo. Bennett used derogatory terms towards blacks and gays.
He wore an autographed Cowboys helmet during the rap.
The team has addressed the situation with Bennett and the video, which had 23,970 views, has since been removed.
The Cowboys, however, are considering getting some money from Bennett under the conduct detrimental to the team clause, a source said.
Bennett's agent Kennard McGuire said he has addressed the video with his client, but he had no knowledge of the Cowboys taking any action against former Texas A
