As the Cowboys prepare for the 49ers Sunday at 3:30 p.m. at AT&T Stadium, here are the latest updates from Thursday's practice at The Star.

  • The Cowboys practiced on the outdoor practice fields at The Star in pads Thursday during the portion normally open to the media.
  • The entire active roster was present at practice during the open portion.
  • Safety Jayron Kearse returned to practice after being activated from the Reserve/COVID-19 list.
  • Cornerback Nahshon Wright also returned to practice after being excused from Wednesday's practice (not injury related).
  • Running back Tony Pollard and tight end Blake Jarwin continued their early-practice routine of doing rehab work with associate athletic trainer/director of rehabilitation Britt Brown before moving into individual work.

What does rehab work mean? Will they be active on sunday? Pollard?

But wow, sounds so cool. We didnt have this since week one or not even then. Okay Gallups missing, but playing that game with all our guys will really show, what this team is capable of.

Can't wait!!! Gawd I'm beginning to be pumped lol. :)

That’s great, no excuses. I think the NFL should cancel all Covid testing until next preseason. The NFL should be more concerned with hiring good officials.


we dem boys
Go Dallas!!!
:clap:
agreed. Cant have that change the balance of power. are all employees of all other workplaces taking test of every employee every week? i believe if you exhibit symptoms or have player let you know they aren't feeling well, yes test them. if not time to play this out to the end.

Jabril Cox isn't playing. That's a sneaky bad loss considering Neal and LVE are the starting inside 'backers.
Agreed.

The loss of Michael Gallup and Jabril Cox hurts. Could have used them big time during the playoffs. Everyone else has to step up and play hard since everyone available is healthy. No excuses. Cowboys have to come out and play pissed off while staying focused. Play hard and aggressive but focused and do your job. Win your matchups. Keep penalties at a minimum. This team is way more talented than the 49ers. If everyone, including coaches, does their job well all 4 quarters, Cowboys should win this in a landslide.

We can’t ask for better health heading into the playoffs.

Cox played 9 snaps on defense. That’s not a loss of any kind. You may see it as a lost opportunity to gain something, but we have no idea how much or how well he would have played; it’s pure speculation.

Thank you - I was about to go look at snap count because calling a sneaky-bad loss to a guy who played all of a quarter once and has been out since Nov 2 is a tough statement to agree with. Out LBers are terrible and this is the sort of team to really expose them, but there is no evidence to suggest Cox would be better.

What I love most about this report is the fact they are practicing outside. I know I know it’s Texas and the conditions aren’t that bad but our prior head coach would have had these guys practice inside to keep them from the elements lol

Agreed.

Practicing in the elements makes the Cowboys mentally stronger and ready for when they advance and need to play outdoors (which many playoff teams currently play in).

Plus, the Shanahan scheme, built on eye-candy and misdirection, is hell on rookie linebackers.
