“Circumcising the mosquito” is one of Jones’s favorite folksy sayings, by the way.

“Obviously, Dak’s emergence makes you feel better about having that happen to you because there is a lot of optimism with Dak”.
Running back Darren McFadden was placed on the non-football injury list, meaning he won’t be eligible to play in the first six games.
While Prescott has a chance to play, Carson Wentz will sit behind Chase Daniel despite projected starter Sam Bradford being traded to the Vikings on Saturday for a pair of draft picks, including a first-rounder in 2017.
“You look around”, Prescott said. The pressure is not on me. “At the same time, a lot of veteran guys. will get him well prepared”. The line returns three All-Pros in left tackle Tyron Smith, right guard Zack Martin and center Travis Frederick.
Prescott is a better option than what Matt Cassel, Brandon Weeden and Kellen Moore provided last season.
Sanchez has started 72 games in a six-year career, going 37-35 in those games. “Protections wise, everybody’s got just about the same protections, but then it’s learning a different dialect of a language or a whole new language completely, that’s really where the learning curve comes in, speaking the language back to the receivers, the tight ends, the running backs, to everybody on offense, so that’s what takes so much time”.
“Coming from college and jumping into the starting position for the Dallas Cowboys, I mean, it”s insane for him,” Collins said. “Some of the other things we can do that we don’t have to depend on that experience are there and alive in this team”. He will surely provide a solid boost to this defensive line until the suspensions of Demarcus Lawrence and Randy Gregory are up. Most are picking the Cowboys or Giants to win this division and Sunday will be a great measuring stick to see where the two stack up.
The Panthers also named their 10-man practice squad on Sunday: RB Jalen Simmons, WR Keyarris Garrett, TE Beau Sandland, G David Yankey, DE Larry Webster, DT Eric Crume, LB Brian Blechen, CB Zack Sanchez and safeties Marcus Ball and Travell Dixon.
Because of Romo’s history of back issues – two transverse process fractures, disk surgery and a spinal cyst – and multiple clavicle injuries, the Cowboys are likely to take their time getting him back on the field.
SEASONED SECONDARY: The most experienced part of the defense is the secondary with CBs Orlando Scandrick, Brandon Carr and Morris Claiborne, and S Barry Church. “I kind of saw him walking around and heard he wanted to go back in the game, so I was hoping it wasn’t anything major”. Former first round pick Morris Claiborne will need to prove his worth as he has entered the final year of his contract.
The Dallas Cowboys have been playing the Tony Romo injury situation close to the vest. They came into the league together in 2003.

“But you still have to go and play each and every week and be prepared for every situation”. “Doesn’t mean that you don’t live in the reality of where it is”.
