Geez.

 

[Denim Chicken]

Not good.

 

[RS12]

Eh, they havent even put on pads yet.

 

[Teague31]

Fortunately we are ridiculously deep along the DL...

 

[Zordon]

Here we go...

Garrett said Crawford has been dealing with issue for the last few years, but it has not caused him to miss a game. A source said the MRI checked out fine and that Crawford could just need a couple of days.

“It just started bothering him,” Garrett said.

Back injury will keep Tyrone Crawford off practice field


Whoa. Wait a minute. On top of all the other injures this guy has had, they knew he had a balky back and still tripped all over themselves to hand out a big contract extension? Really?

This is concerning.Wonder if his body can hold up to the rigors of playing inside. Although i admit to not knowing how each injury occurred.

 

[Killerinstinct]

I can see it now. After this year is over we will hear how next year Crawford is going to tear it up. He was playing with a bad back this year after all.

well this is something that makes you go hmmmmmm wonder what that is about for sure.

 

[The Quest for Six]

At this rate, it's only a matter of time until the Cowboys start signing people watching from the stands to play defense

 

[StarBoyz83]

Swell. Our 3 best dl guys last year 2 with hurt back's and 1 suspended and the other isn't on the team.

 

[Gameover]

This isn't good

There hasn't been any "rigors" yet... it has been a few OTA's and two walkthroughs.

One padded practice and his spine will probably be hanging from his belt loop like Indiana Jones' bullwhip.

What a great training staff the Cowboys have.

Same guys get hurt year after year after year.

I am so sick of this crap.

Hate to bring this up, but back pain usually does not go away on its on.

 

[jblaze2004]

not good. When can he be cut and save us money (just encase that is a option).

Especially on the defensive line.

I don't think this is something to blame the Training Staff on.
Like most, if not all NFL teams, the Cowboys have a good training team.
Sometimes, players are just cursed and get injured. Crawford is one of them.

Oh man, our offense better has 10 minute drives all day long.
