The Dallas Cowboys are back on the practice field in Oxnard, California.

After a short break to celebrate Jerry Jones’ induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, the Dallas Cowboys were back on the practice field. Here are all the highlights from the ninth practice of training camp:

Bill Jones of CBS is trying to coin a new nickname for the offensive line of the Cowboys, what do you think?


We did get an injury update on a few guys dealing with hamstrings and other things:


Ryan Switzer (hammy) is taking part in early portion of practice. Jourdan Lewis still watching.

Green is in pads and helmet but is running drills on the side with a trainer. Not practicing with the O-line right now, could change though https://t.co/FERu50XjHq

It wouldn’t be practice without some videos of Jaylon Smith and Sean Lee going through linebacker drills:

It looks like Maliek Collins is doing much better after dealing with some hamstring tightness:

DeMarcus Lawrence has looked to be the best pass rusher the Cowboys have through two weeks of practice:

And his best friend Tyrone Crawford may be sticking at left end:

Taco Charlton has caught some grief early in camp but he is having his best practice so far. In play-action work... https://t.co/2AKEGdXawk

One pass rusher that we’ll be monitoring is Charles Tapper, he went to the tent:


At Monday's practice here in Oxnard, DE Charles Tapper walked into the medical tent for a few minutes and has now been moved to locker room

— Nick Eatman (@nickeatman) August 7, 2017

Cowboys DE Charles Tapper left practice early. Stephen Jones didn't sound concerned. Said it was just a little tightness in his hip/leg

— Jon Machota (@jonmachota) August 8, 2017

How about a little compete period? First up, a nice catch by Terrance Williams:


A win for Jason Witten against Sean Lee?

There is still some competition for the left guard position, even with Chaz Green not in the fold at the moment:

Kyle Wilber knew better but if this were a live game, he would have eaten Darren McFadden’s lunch:
