OXNARD, Calif. -- The Cowboys didn't have helmets or shoulder pads during Monday's walkthrough practice. Tuesday is a two-a-day.

Here's the highlights:

*Before practice Miles Austin and Dez Bryant were working out with wide receivers coach Ray Sherman. Bryant also had a little chat with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.

*Scott Sicko, Alex Barron, Martin Rucker and Mike Hamlin returned to practice. Rucker is a newly signed tight end who was fighting a hamstring problem.

*Mike Hamlin got first-team reps at safety with Sensabaugh out. Sean Lee was on the first-team at inside linebacker in place of Keith Brooking.

*Alex Barron and Robert Brewster switched at the right and left tackle spots on Monday. Brewster started with the first-team followed by Barron. Sam Young received second-team reps at right tackle.
