SAN ANTONIO -- Starting right guard Montrae Holland (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/4560/montrae-holland) missed the afternoon practice session at the Alamodome with a stiff back. Holland dealt with some problems during the morning walkthrough session and left in the middle of it.

Holland also suffered a knee sprain Wednesday. He was replaced by David Arkin (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/14119/david-arkin).

Mike Jenkins (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/11259/mike-jenkins) worked on individual drills but not team activities as he's still recovering from a stinger. Jenkins' absence was more precautionary. Orlando Scandrick (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/11366/orlando-scandrick), who is starting in place of Terence Newman (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/4463/terence-newman) (groin), was joined on the first team by Alan Ball (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/10680/alan-ball).

Does anyone else think we need to sign another veteran guard and cornerback?

This is a pre-season wake up call, I hope someone in charge answers it.

Arkin may replace Holland by mid season anyway.....good, a young OL that we need.....

I'm glad Arkin is getting the extra work. That's Great!!

I wonder if Ball will be a decent 4th CB this year, I guess he cant be worse then he was at safety.

I think he will be fine. He seems to be a decent corner.

Holland bent over at training table too fast going for thirds.

If the front office thinks we can rely on Holland to play 16 games, they are crazy. I truly believe by week 8, Arkin will be lined up next to Smith and that will solidify the right side for a very long time. Time now to find someone to replace Dre and Kyle. Love both of them, but they are long in the tooth and we need a younger more athletic line that can pull and trap and get out on the screen.
