Thank goodness for the Return of OT Lael Collins, ...
While not much is gonna be said or made of what really caused the medical issue of Collins' sudden hip injury that caused him to miss the entire season. it's just been speculation thus far.
1) As compared with being stuck with the ever struggling Terrence Steele starting at RT for much of the year, it is a wonderful feeling to have Lael Collins back at RT again.
And that’s counting on the same Collins that had a stellar year in 2019, when Cowboys finished 2nd in entire NFL in least sacks allowed, and 5th in rushing yards.
2) Having Collins back, means no more worries about being forced to have to go with Terrence Steele again.
- It’s not even pads on practice yet and already I’m hearing from media spotters that Steele is
already struggling in protection drills .
And I’ve already heading in the direction that if Steele is still struggling like this at preseason end,
then I’m not even interested in him as a backup reserve.
- At the very least cut him and place Chaz Green 2.0 on the freakin’ practice squad,.. but I’m
more so ready to move on and invest in someone else.
But we really need have a reliable swing tackle – and Steele aside, there’s only Nyske, Ball and Knight left as hopeful reserves. (sorry no way i'm mentioning Mitch Hyatt)
And a couple of them need to prove reliable.in just this summer per camp, preseason.
