Here are all the highlights from today’s practice out at Cowboys training camp.
After taking Friday off, the Cowboys were back on the field for their fifth practice of training camp. Notable guys that did not practice were Maliek Collins (hip flexor) and Ryan Switzer (hamstring). Also, the Cowboys waived/ injured quarterback Zac Dysert and activated DT Richard Ash from the NFI list. Two other notable additions to the Cowboys’ practice today:

Luke McCown is at practice wearing No. 3. New WR Jevontee Herndon is wearing No. 15.

They don’t even wait a day before giving Dysert’s prestigious number to McCown.
Well, we got our first mention of the Cowboys’ seventh-round pick, Joey Ivie, you remember the guy that Rod Marinelli was over the moon for?
And, here is the birthday boy, Dak Prescott, with his clipboard holder. Happy Birthday Dak!

Man, Prescott’s family closeness is something to marvel at:

Early in today’s practice, Jourdan Lewis was taken to the medical tent and then removed from the practice field, there is no other information at this time:
Jourdan Lewis just left the field after visiting with trainers in the injury tent. #cowboys

Rookie Jourdan Lewis left practice with leg injury (hamstring?). With Ryan Switzer and Lewis out, Lance Lenoir... https://t.co/xnxu0bqw4s

One guy who is always fired up for practice is none other than Dez Bryant, the All-Pro receiver:

How about a little two-on-two for a breezy Saturday afternoon in southern California? Terrance Williams with the grab.
Sprinkle in a little Cole Beasley...
Add a dash of Andy Jones and to the house, he goes! Well...without safety help.
Alright, now we’re talking. Good to see Cedric Thornton putting in some work after being relatively unheard from last season:

Here’s Taco Charlton going through the pass rush drills:
Seems like the offense came to compete today after the defense has had the edge early on:

Jaylon Smith was getting after it today, watch him chase down Darren McFadden and force him out:

A little more special teams news, for what it’s worth, Lenoir has been showing up in these practices:
With no Ryan Switzer and no Jourdan Lewis, it's Lance Lenoir and Javontee Herdnon working punt returns today.

Oh, Benson Mayowa, we hardly knew ye. All joking aside here is Dallas’ sack leader v.s. the eater of worlds:
How about some more compete period? It’s everyone’s favorite:

Richard Ash gets activated and then gets through Travis Frederick? What are we seeing?
Stephen Paea has looked surprisingly strong in his compete period reps:
Here is a really nice spin from Tyrone Crawford on La’el Collins, looked pretty nasty:
Dak was looking pretty sharp on his birthday:
That’s definitely not Dez, it’s Dak with the comeback to Williams:

Byron Jones makes a heck of a play but he was out of bounds:

That’s okay because next up, he’s making another great play:

Just throw it to Witten in the flat, he’s open:
The offense fought back but the defense got some quality wins today, Dave Helman agrees:
Practice is over. It is my opinion that the defense won the day. We'll try to get some kind of word on Jourdan Lewis.
— David Helman (@HelmanDC) July 30, 2017
That’s a wrap for today, we’ll be looking into the Jourdan Lewis injury and its extent. Stay tuned to BTB for any updates. We’ll leave you with our own McCool in the walk-off:
