Ball Taking Ownership Of Free Safety Spot

OXNARD, Calif. - Few questions surround the Cowboys as they begin the second half of training camp in Oxnard.

With 10 of 11 defensive starters returning from last year, the majority of the roster isn't a mystery. The lone unknown on defense is how safety Alan Ball, who is beginning his first full season as a starter, will contribute.

Ball hasn't made any spectacular plays in the first two games of the preseason, but he hasn't made any noticeable mistakes, either. And the coaching staff has been pleased with how well he's meshed with the rest of the secondary.

Frankly teams have not been able to get the ball down field very far vs the 1st team defense thus far as we are putting the heat on QB forcing them to get rid of the ball.

If Ball is going unnoticed that's great! It means he's not getting burnt.
