Wednesday marked the second day of practice at The Star in Frisco, but it proved to be a difficult day for many in the Cowboys organization to focus on football. Dak Prescott and Mike McCarthy were among those who shared their perspective and thoughts on the devastating tragedy that unfolded in the town of Uvalde just the day before.
The day’s work session saw several non-participants due to injury, causing some amount of concern despite it being early in the voluntary workout calendar. While Tyron Smith and James Washington were held out, Dallas saw one of its linebackers limp off the field during drills. But some players look to have bulked up for this season; CeeDee Lamb and Neville Gallimore are carrying some extra muscle in 2022. An undrafted free agent turned in the play of the day, we got our first glimpses of where a couple multi-position players may line up, and a network analyst reveals the team’s weakest link. All that, plus one of the Cowboys’ highest-profile athlete fans tells it like it is regarding his favorite team. That’s up next in News and Notes.
