Cowboys News: No-fan games could cripple Dallas’ financials, Hill’s second act

Trysten Hill struggled to crack the rotation consistently as a rookie, but has a chance to shine in year two. Cap space not Dak related

Trysten Hill had a hard time cracking the rotation last season as a rookie, but with Jim Tomsula on the staff and a year of experience under his belt, it might be unwise to seal his fate just yet. New Cowboys defensive tackle Gerald McCoy said Carson Wentz was better than Dak Prescott last July, now he shares the same uniform as the latter to face the former twice a year as division rivals.

Everson Grifffen had been one of the biggest names on the free-agent market since voiding the last three years of his deal with the Minnesota Vikings. The most had interest before the draft, but his price tag would have to reasonable to book his ticket to Dallas.

How the Cowboys will take a huge financial loss without fans attending games, whether or not it’s playoffs or bust in 2020, and how the Dallas defense still runs through DeMarcus Lawrence and more are covered in the news and notes.
