On the day, Romo went 10-for-17 in team and 7-on-7 drills.
On to the observations:
On to the observations:
- Romo and Bryant hooked up on back-shoulder touchdowns in tight red zone work on Claiborne in one-on-one drills. But Claiborne was able to exact some revenge on the third rep when he was able to rip the ball free from Bryant for the breakup. Romo later hit Bryant across the back of the end zone for a touchdown in 7-on-7 work a play after Romo’s throw on a similar route was a tad early and fell incomplete.
- Tight end Rico Gathers threw down an emphatic spike after he thought he's beaten safety Jeff Heath for a touchdown in the competition period of practice. One problem: He was called for offensive pass interference for pushing off on Heath. Several defenders were glad to point to the flag on the ground after Gathers’ spike.
- With cornerbacks Orlando Scandrick and Brandon Carr and right tackleDoug Free sitting out practice, rookie corner Anthony Brown took the first-team nickel snaps; Josh Thomas replaced Carr and Chaz Green worked at right tackle. Green has had a good chance to show the coaches what he can do the past two days with the first-team offense with left tackle Tyron Smith sitting out Friday.
- One interesting development: Derek Akunne worked with the first team atlinebacker, which had been a role Mark Nzeocha has handled with injuries toKyle Wilber and Andrew Gachkar the past few days.
- This was easily Brice Butler's best practice of camp.
