So this injury is pretty series after reading about it and has cut other careers short. Any severe injury he could endure paralysis. No thx I'll take my chances at a healthy life

I'd Dallas knew of this why in the world would we even consider him?
They like projects.

He's full of crap like Smith.

Dude had issues in college. I will forever stand by that this dude is a liar and Dallas got played.

Will McClay needs to go.

He led this charge on LVE.

Unacceptable to take a guy with this condition that high in the draft.

He's a gamer, but doesn't mean much if his spine can't handle it

Another young promising Cowboys LB, DeVonte Holloman, had to retire due to the same condition.

I guess our medical team don't check or care if a player has this condition.
Billy Cannon Jr., Jesse Penn, and now Leighton Vander Esch.

Penn and Cannon Jr. was tragic. LVE being drafted is the unreliable and unavailable players the Cowboys have drafted on defense with Jerry Jones calling the shot with no Football man telling him to sit there and I will turn to you and look like your doing something (Jerry's request to Jimmy Johnson).

We have drafted linebackers with major knee injuries Sean Lee, Bruce Carter, and Jaylon Smith. DL with off the field issues DLaw, Gregory, and signed Irving. Unreliable and Unavailable defense will never go to the NFC Championship let alone a Super Bowl.

"NFL teams were aware Vander Esch had the condition before the 2018 draft when the Cowboys selected the Boise State standout with the 19th overall pick.

He plays with a neck collar to help protect the area.

"From what the doctors say, I was born with stenosis," Vander Esch said following Sunday's 17-9 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. "So it's something you've got to deal with. Nothing was bothering me until I got hit in Week 7. I've got a new set of pads being built, and I've been running and practicing in those. So it feels good. ... We were just saving up for playoffs hopefully, but it's out of my control."

My goodness. Only these “Dallas Cowboys”

What a terribly run organization

All those gambles on injured players and troubled players and Jerry and crew didn’t hit on not one of them. Not a single one

Randy Friggin Gregory...

Good luck with surgery, Wolf Hunter.

Who cares? He can’t shed a block and stop the run anyways......he’s basically a strong safety playing in the box. Tired of his stupid *** coyote call anyways
