OXNARD, Calif. – It must have been a great feeling for Ryan Russell to walk off the practice field and hear something nice.

It’s been a long-running joke throughout training camp that the rookie defensive end is the favorite target of defensive coordinator. When Marinelli begins screaming, it’s a good bet that No. 99 is at fault.

However bad it might sound, the fifth-round pick said it’s easy to see the positive in the situation.

“I mean, you have to definitely listen to the message. Sometimes it’s not how it’s said, but the fact that he’s on me so hard means he expects a lot from me, he sees a lot in me,” Russell said. “I definitely want to respond immediately and get better and make them proud and make myself proud.”

Russell took steps in that direction on Sunday night against San Francisco. The Cowboys’ young pass rushers enjoyed a phenomenal night against the 49ers, and Russell was right in the middle of it with three tackles, a tackle for loss, a quarterback hurry and an all-important sack.
