Twitter: Claiborne and McClain to practice/Malena to be waived

[xvendettax914]

I understand that Murray was better last year but I'm not sold on his health yet, and same for Dunbar. Having Williams and randle would ensure the running game stays strong, especially if its going to be a focus of this offense.

I suspect we'll see a much different defense with Carr, Claiborne, Melton, and the two McClains.

You think?

Cowboys have released P Cody Mandell. Garrett said they plan to bring in another K.

This pretty much ensures that Jones makes the roster.

It is rare you see a punter come in off the street and seize a job at this point in camp.

Wasn't Scandrick also held out of the SD game?

 

[CyberB0b]

I think that also sews up the RB position, and I think we'll go long at RB. Ryan Williams looks very impressive, and Randle looks to have improved.

Dunbar is a favorite of the staff, too, and obviously there's Murray.

I liked what Randle was able to do. He had some wiggle he didn't seem to have last year.

Yes.

In all honesty it's probably his holding for Bailey that keeps him here, not his punting

McClain, the other McClain, MoCox and Meton will be a lot better than what we saw the other night.

Church and Selvie didn't play either at SD

"@toddarcher: Cowboys will waive/injured RB Ben Malena. Reverts to IR if not claimed."

I'm curious to see how many of the injured players that revert to IR are kept for the season. They can give them an injury settlement at any time if they don't want to keep them all year.

So far, we have not kept many. We have cut several with injury settlements after holding them on IR.

Darrius Morris was released after holding on IR, so was Tyronne Green, Evan Wilsn, Jarrod Pughsley, Marvin Robinson and Jocquiel Skinner.

Dashaun Phillips and Brian Clarke are still there. So is Chris Whaley.

McClain didn't re re retire? There was an epic 20 pager a few days ago!

MoCox eh? Sounds a lil freaky deeky
