News: ESPN: Claiborne demoted, skips walk-through

[Nav22]

Cornerback Morris Claiborne skipped the Cowboys' walk-through practice and angrily left the club's Valley Ranch training facility Tuesday after being informed that Orlando Scandrick was replacing him in the starting lineup, multiple sources told ESPN.

The Cowboys could fine Claiborne for missing the practice or conduct detrimental to the team.

Claiborne's demotion came a few hours after Jerry Jones said on his weekly radio show that the third-year cornerback had not been worth the sixth pick of the 2012 in the draft, which Dallas moved up to acquire.

Un real. Way to build confidence in the guy jurrha.

 

[Toruk_Makto]

This isn't good.

We will need Mo.

 

[MrMom]

Makes the choice easier for Garrett. He should be splitting reps with Moore at this point, at the most.

 

[maxdallasfan]

At least start him vs NO, then immediately pull him if he screws up.

 

[DoctorChicken]

Well then.

To late for that

 

[BigDPlayer]

Can't say that I disagree with this move. Be a professional Mo - play out your contract and go on your way. The Raiders need a new star.

 

[reddyuta]

we should just stay away from LSU guys.

 

[Vintage]

Dumb move by Claiborne.

Until you have a link, it's a rumor. So far, haven't seen a thing on twitter about it.

Well that's not good, I agree the guy hasn't lived up to expectations, but lets be real here. Our defense isn't that good, we can use all the help we can get even if he's a 3rd/4th string CB. I hope Claiborne doesn't turn into that guy who tries to split the locker room or something, because that's the last thing we need.

 

[Bungarian]

No link = no proof

really? you blame jerry for this and nothing else. the guy sucks. keeping him on the field is lying to him about it. a lot of the problems are from his technique and he has shown poor technique. and its not fair to the rest of the team to have to deal with him because he is the 6th pick of the draft. if jerry did one thing right. its this.

Where did you get this information if there's no link available?

Wow what a tool bag. He couldn't own up to losing his starting spot. Be a team player and a man

 

[Screw The Hall]

I'd demote him one more spot and get Sterling Moore on the field.

He's not playing great every one knows that. But the ring leader drafted him when he did. Now he's going to do what he does best.
Make a circus out of it. Don't you wish Jerry would just shut up? I wish he would disappear. Garret handled the questions just right.
Jerry didn't need to expand on it.
And I blame jerry for way more than this trust me.

I think it was all about Sterling Moore anyway. Scandrick started over him in the Rams game. It was about the sub-packages than anything else.
