Kellen Moore with an impressive long-field fade to rookie receiver Noah Brown for a touchdown. He followed that up by overthrowing Lance Lenoir on a fade on the next play. Moore has taken more snaps with the No. 2 offense so far today.
Veteran linebacker Justin Durant is taking part in team drills for the first time in training camp. Since he signed close to the start of camp and didn't have the benefit of the offseason program, the Cowboys have been deliberate in their approach with him to avoid injury.
The Cowboys are without more than 20 percent of their roster with 19 of their 90 players not taking part in practices. Some are veteran off days, like Jason Witten, Dez Bryant, Darren McFadden, Orlando Scandrick, Cole Beasley and Tyron Smith. Others are management, like Jaylon Smith. The rest are dealing with injuries.
After serving as general manager of the Rangers, Indians and Tigers, Joe Klein spent two decades as executive director of the independent Atlantic League. He died Wednesday at 75 after complications from heart surgery.
Chaz Green has had issues with cramping since middle school, and it's cropping up at a bad time as he seeks to lock down a starting job.
Joe Looney lightened the mood at practice on Tuesday, sporting Ezekiel Elliott's No. 21 and even adding the crop-top jersey for the full effect.
Texas Longhorns tight end Andrew Beck will miss the entire season after having surgery to repair the foot he broke in practice.
Tyson Ross might be in danger of losing his spot in the Texas rotation after another rough outing Tuesday night.
Before discussions with USF's Charlie Strong and BC's Steve Addazio, Ivan Maisel, Jake Trotter & Chris Low react to the AP poll, discuss Max Browne's value at Pitt and more.
Jaylon and Rod Smith play different positions and have different styles, but they share the same passion and are happy to finally be on the same team.
Undrafted rookie quarterback Cooper Rush has impressed the Cowboys' coaches enough to get some snaps with the second-team offense.
Phil Steele, "Stanford Steve" Coughlin and Chris Fallica give their take on the TCU Horned Frogs. What is the best bet for their title odds, season win total and more?
Albert Pujols hit a three-run homer to become the major league career leader in home runs by a player born outside the United States, and the Los Angeles Angels beat the Texas Rangers 10-1 on Tuesday night.
The Cowboys' regular-season opener against the Giants isn't until Sept. 10, but Dak Prescott isn't sure he needs any more preseason work.
Left guard candidate Chaz Green left practice early because of cramping. He received an IV. Green's health has been an issue since he joined the Cowboys in 2015.
Tough day on the injury front, as two of the top 30 starting pitchers of the past month, Danny Salazar (No. 29 on the Player Rater) and Alex Wood (No. 25), the No. 16 overall player during that same time frame, Joey Gallo, and the No. 30 player for the season, Cody Bellinger, all landed in the DL. Of those, Salazar's is of greatest concern, as it's his third DL stint in the past 13 months and second for an elbow issue. I can't say I'd plan on him contributing to fantasy teams the rest of the way.
Dak Prescott has displayed sound decision-making in practice, throwing calculated incompletions instead of forcing risky passes.
The Cowboys opened up Ford Center to fans without tickets and announced a crowd of 7,555. They had 6,052 at Monday's practice. Including their time in Oxnard, this was the second-most attended practice in camp.
Rarely does Tyron Smith whiff on pass protection, but DeMarcus Lawrence just got by him in one on one drills with a hard fake to the inside only to come back outside. That's at least twice Lawrence has used that move on Smith in camp.
