The obvious talk of the day was injury concerns when it came to the Dallas Cowboys. After a day off on Sunday, the club returned to the field Monday and donned pads for the first time in training camp. Putting on the shells allows the players to feel like they are actually doing their jobs, as battles in the trenches take on much more ferocity after everyone had a week to get their legs underneath the.
Unfortunately, legs gave out in multiple ways as James Washington broke a bone in his foot and safety Jayron Kearse rolled his. The latter turned out not to be significant but the former will miss significant time.
