Tyron Smith back spasms

[Bullflop]

Oh boy......he's probably ok for now but could this be the seed for issues in other games going forward? Certainly, something to keep an eye on....


Tyron Smith - T - Cowboys
Cowboys LT Tyron Smith missed practice Wednesday with back spasms.

Coach Jason Garrett said he is hopeful Smith can practice Thursday. Back spasms are not a long-term concern, but the Cowboys will likely be cautious considering Smith's injury history. Atlanta's pass rush is anything but fearsome, but they did sack Dak Prescott eight times last season with Smith out of the lineup.

I had that problem a week before I married my wife. I've heard it can be caused by stress.
The condition lasted for a grand total of eleven years (the stress, not the spasms.)

But he was feeling great in the off-season!!!!!!!

LOL

Tyron was back at practice today, so everybody can exhale.

Regardless, he's going to be dealing with stuff like this the rest of his career. Back problems can only be controlled, not cured.

just eat some HGH like Peyton Manning did, Goodell doesn't care

He is no longer a beast even when he plays. This Oline really needs complete overhaul other than Martin.

He looked mighty good last week

Time to resign Chaz!!

Yikes and Yeow! Bite thy tongue, crazy person!

I have been saying for two years that this FO needs to find a replacement at LT due to Tyron’s health issue.

It’s better to be safe than sorry.

Does Atlanta do a Curse the Tyronnosaurus ceremonial dance every season?

Either that, or they make a Tyron voodoo doll and stick a pin in its back!

Having a veteran guard next to him in Xavier Su'a Filo seemed to help Smith.

 

[Brooksey]

Tyron practiced today and has not let up a QB pressure in 91 pass attempts or since Columbo took over.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Either that, or they make a Tyron voodoo doll and stick a pin in its back!

 

[Sully]

Dallas really needs to look strong and hard as Smith's replacement

 

[cowboy_ron]

I've seen pics of his wife so I can kinda understand the back spasm part.

 

[FTWayne]

Oh crap we're getting ready for the excuses, looks like it's already marked down as loss. Any bookies on this site, I need to place a bet.

 

[wssaustin]

It is that Atlanta time again.

Unless you wear the star.

Deja Vu

 

[davey999]

Every year his lower back (discs) gives him problems and affects his play and performance, yet every year he refuses to have surgery to fix his lower back.

Because back surgeries are not guaranteed to work. Most people over the age of 30 have disc issues that you can see on an mri and many have no pain.

He did look good last week. But its been 9 other weeks besides last week. And now he has back spasms again.
