The Boys are back. After not having a training camp in 2020 due to the Pandemic, the Dallas Cowboys are back at training camp for the first time in two years, in Oxnard California.
The fans were in attendance, the media was back although they were spread out all over the field due to covid restrictions and the players were running through their routes, and mixing it up all over the field.
Here are some observations from Day 1
The Offensive Line: Tyrone Collins looked sharp, as he has fully recovered from back surgery last season. The key is keeping him healthy for a full season, and for the backups to fill roles when need be. On the right side of the line La’el Collins split time with Terrance Stelle and Ty Nashke as the Cowboys plan to ease Collins slowly back as he had hip surgery last season.
Micah Parsons looked good. All the hype surrounding the Cowboys first pick in the draft is here to stay. As he works with Dan Quinn to either play as a rusher as well at the Mike Linebacker in Dan Quinn’s defensive scheme.
Dak is Back:
- Prescott showed good touch on two completions to wide receiver Malik Turner, including an over-the-shoulder throw against cornerback Jourdan Lewis for about 40 yards down the left sideline. Backup quarterback Garrett Gilbert also had a nice deep throw to Noah Brown over defensive backs Deante Burton and Damontae Kazee.
- First takeaway of camp goes to linebacker/safety Keanu Neal, who punched the ball out following a completion to wide receiver Michael Gallup.
