Cowboys corner Chidobe Awuzie spoke to the media about of number of topics, including their upcoming opponent the Atlanta Falcons.
The season opener against the Los Angeles Rams didn’t go quite as the Dallas faithful had hoped, but the Cowboys already have another chance to stamp their first W on the schedule.
The Atlanta Falcons make the trip to AT&T Sunday afternoon, and their high octane offense should test a Cowboys defense that has lost a handful of key players this season, as corner Anthony Brown joined the IR late this week with a rib injury.
The strength of the Falcons is no secret; Matt Ryan slinging the ball downfield for chunk yardage to Julio Jones, Calvin Ridley, and company.
When asked his thoughts on the upcoming matchup, Awuzie responded,
“Great receivers, just like every other week in the NFL. Obviously we have a Hall of Fame receiver we’re going to go against. It’s going to be a great challenge and a great opportunity as well, so we’re excited.” Awuzie would go on to add, “Julio has been doing it for years now so everyone knows about how Julio goes about his game but Ridley has really came into his own as well, he’s very quick and a very good route runner.”
Luckily for the Dallas secondary, they should be used to facing great wide receivers day in and day out. Awuzie acknowledged the battles in practice, saying,
“It’s always been a blessing. I’ve said prior that my rookie year I went against Dez Bryant, Cole Beasley, Terrence Williams, guys like that. And now we have Amari, Michael Gallup, and CeeDee… We’ve just always had good receivers in the building to get us ready for games. I feel like we’re going against the best everyday, so that’s always been a blessing for us.”
Awuzie was able to create the lone turnover in the Cowboys Week 1 loss when he pulled down an interception. The former second-round pick touched on the symbiotic relationship between the front seven and the defensive backs when asked about the interception.
“We just had great pressure. I think Aldon Smith and Everson Griffen got off the ball on that one. That’s they key to the game, you know, we all working on a chain. If they’re able to get to the quarterback, then the DB’s are able to make plays, so I credit all my success to them getting off the ball, getting in the quarterbacks face, and the ball happened to be in my hands.”
The Dallas pass rush must be more effective on Sunday than they were last week if they Cowboys hope to slow down the aforementioned passing attack of the Falcons. Cowboys Wire’s own Ben Grimaldi expanded on that crucial portion of the game with the following article. [lawrence-related id=654327]
One of the most talked about training camp topics was the ability of rookie cornerback Trevon Diggs. Diggs appeared to live up to the hype in his first career game, and his fellow defender Awuzie had nothing but praise for the youngster.
“He’s a great player. Very poised, he walks around the building like a vet. He lets the game come to him, very coachable, he has all the tangibles and intangibles, so I’m looking forward to Trevon and his career and how it pans out.” Awuzie would elaborate on his compliments, adding, “He doesn’t play around. When it’s time to lock in he locks in, he watches film when he needs to watch film, asks the veterans questions, keeps everybody engaged. That’s what I mean about how he walks around like a vet, he just does everything that he’s supposed to and some.”
The rookie’s job doesn’t get any easier, as he is set to see a heavy dose of the uber-talented Juilo Jones on the outside.
“I do.” Awuzie responded assuredly after being asked if the expects the Falcons to challenge the defense more vertically than the Rams did last week.
While the Cowboys will be without Anthony Brown this week, Jourdan Lewis is able to rejoin the Cowboys after missing Week 1.
Awuzie, Lewis, Diggs, and the other members of the secondary all have their work cut out for them, as the Dallas defense looks to have a bounce-back performance.
The Cowboy injury report, quotes from Mike McCarthy, and an opponent preview, as the Falcons are coming to Dallas in just a few short days.
The Dallas Cowboys have to quickly shake off a disappointing Week 1 performance, as Julio Jones and the Atlanta Falcons come to Dallas Sunday. Tyron Smith didn’t practice Thursday, and the last time Smith missed a game against the Falcons it cost Dallas the game. Luckily for Dallas, both Smith and star wideout Amari Cooper figure to take the field in full on Sunday.
There were positives and negatives to pull from the Cowboys season opener. Injuries to key starters mean the Cowboys will need a handful of players to step up in the absence of their teammates. Aldon Smith looked like the player he once was, a great sign for Dallas. Trevon Diggs impressed with his skills and athleticism. The Cowboys offense left fans wondering where the creative Kellen Moore and Mike McCarthy we were all ready for went. Dallas has a chance to prove themselves against a less than stellar Falcons defense in Week 2.
Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy spoke to the media Thursday. The Cowboys lack of pre-snap motion was a topic of concern. The Cowboys’ young secondary’s performance, specifically Trevon Diggs, was a positive point for McCarthy and company.
Linebacker quickly changed from a strength for the Dallas Cowboys, to one of the most pressing weaknesses on the whole team. Without signal callers Leighton Vander Esch and Sean Lee, Jaylon Smith and Joe Thomas must step up like never before.

The Cowboys released their injury report Thursday. Tyron Smith and Amari Cooper were late-week additions who should have their status monitored until Sunday.
Very few Week 1 NFL games were played with fans in attendance. The Cowboys Sunday afternoon showdown with the Falcons will have 25% capacity of fans, and Dak Prescott is excited to be able to play in front of the Cowboy faithful again.
The star of Aldon Smith burned brighter than maybe anyone’s on Sunday night, and he hadn’t played in an NFL game since 2015. For those with an Athletic subscription here’s a look at his game in its entirety.
For those without, here’s his big plays cutup on Twitter.
Here is every play the #Cowboys EDGE Aldon Smith (No. 58) made in Week 1.
KD Drummond’s player power rankings have some movers and shakers. Aldon Smith finds himself in the top 10, though he only had to climb three spots while another defender had the most precipitous drop of all. Click through to see the full list.
The Dallas Cowboys Thursday injury report has two huge names, Amari Cooper and Tyron Smith, to monitor as the Falcons game gets closer.
The Dallas Cowboys injuries are quickly starting to pile up and if fans are experiencing post-traumatic stress issues based on the last time Dak Prescott played the Atlanta Falcons without his left tackle, no one would blame them.
The team released their official injury report for Thursday practice, and there were a few important names to monitor as the Cowboys home opener against the Falcons draws near. Tyron Smith missed practice with a neck injury and Amari Cooper was limited with a foot injury.
Tyron Smith was a Thursday DNP the week of a Falcons game.
The left tackle appeared on his first injury report of the season. The veteran was held out of action Thursday, and Smith has battled neck and back injuries for the majority of the recent seasons.
Players with Smith’s tenure are often given Thursdays off as rest days, but it is still discouraging to see Smith’s neck bothering him so early into the new season.
Smith missed the game against the Falcons in 2017, which turned into the infamous Chaz Green debacle. Green, Smith’s replacement at left tackle, turned in a dreadful performance allowing a Falcons-record six sacks to Adrian Clayborn.
It goes without saying that Smith’s absence would be potentially game changing, and his health will be monitored closely.
Joining Smith on the report is fellow Cowboy All-Pro Cooper.
Cooper manged to get in a limited practice on Thursday with a foot injury. Cooper dealt with both foot and knee issues a year ago, and his production has takena dip when he’s played through injuries in the past in Dallas.
The Cowboys will need their most dynamic wide receiver as they attempt to keep pace with the Falcons high-flying offense.
Fortunately, hopefully, NFL Network’s Jane Slater says neither is currently in danger of outright missing the contest.
When I reached out on both these injuries, I was told there is not a concern that Tyron Smith and Amari Cooper won’t be available to play Sunday according to a source. https://t.co/zaMOkDHS7P
Defensive end and new star Aldon Smith was another notable absence from practice, but his is excused as it was a trip to the dentist that held Smith out Thursday, and he should be back with the team on Friday.
There was a bit of positive news, as Jourdan Lewis was a full participant Thursday. The slot cornerback missed the season opener in Los Angeles with an ankle injury, but it appears he’s a go for Week 2.
[vertical-gallery id=654295][lawrence-newsletter]
The Cowboys lost starting tight-end Blake Jarwin for the season with a torn ACL last Sunday. Leightom Vander Esch fractured his clavicle, requiring surgery. Vander Esch is due back in 6-8 weeks, landing him on the IR with La’el Collins and Sean Lee.
Jane Slater, Cowboys reporter for NFL Network, noted that the team isn’t concerned with the health of Tyron Smith and Amari Cooper, and that both are on pace to be available for Sunday.

Even if Cooper and Smith’s absence from a full practice was just preventive or rest, the Cowboys can’t be pleased with number of high-level contributors already set to miss time this season.
