Practice is underway at Cowboys Stadium with some walk through stuff. No Ware, Ratliff or Spears again ... Of course no Mike Jenkins.

Rookie CB Morris Claiborne is on the field but still not practicing with the wrist injury. Looks like he's just shadowing the right corners

Pass just went Claiborne's way during the walkthrough drill at right corner. Wisely he didn't fully try to catch it.

In pre practice it looks like Mo Claiborne is working on the right side. This is where he played at LSU

DeMarcus Ware, Jay Ratliff and Marcus Spears among missing at Cowboys OTA. Ratliff, Spears dealing w/ injuries. Not sure what's up w/ Ware.

Nothing wrong with a nice 72 degree practice inside the stadium after the team's been out in the Valley Ranch heat since April.

Tyrone Crawford is stretching but doesn't have a helmet next to him so he still appears like he will be OUT today.

No sign of Ware, Spears, Ratliff, Lissemore, Jenkins, FJones, MJohnson, KWilber, MBernadeau, DCoale at voluntary OTA.

Ratliff has foot injury. Spears has neck. Coale has foot. Wilber has finger. Felix has shoulder.

Don't see third-round pick Tyrone Crawford (calf) out there again. That's five of seven draft picks again out.

Dan Connor, Alex Albright working conditioning. Both recovering from shoulder surgeries

The D-line is pretty thin today with no Ratliff or Spears. Tyrone Crawford (calf) isn't practicing and there's no sign of Sean Lissemore.

Kevin Kowalski and Jermey Parnell back to practice after missing last week's session that was open 2 media.

How important is it for WR to play special teams in order to make this team? Only Austin and Bryant don't practice during this period.

Witten spending the special teams portion of practice working with the TEs coach. Teaching John Garrett some things.

Dwayne Harris probably needs to be a return factor to make this team, but couldn't get under the ball just now. I'd still want Dez to do it.

Dez is such a natural at PR...gotta think the Cowboys would rather have someone else step up and do it, though.

Watching the OL work, Callahan is teaching the line to shuffle two steps sideways then work up the field to get man. Have never seen that.

Dez Bryant is working as a punt returner. Jerry Jones is here, hasn't stopped practice in protest.

Harris muffed the next punt. This is how the depth chart gets set going into training camp.

Ota thoughts. Why is Stephen mcgee still here. Cowboys signed Rudy carpenter for a reason. They know what mcgee is and isn't

That demarco Murray looks like a professional running back. Yeah he looks good with ball in his hands

Dwayne harris muffed punt is not going help his cause. He was not impressive as a rookie. And does nothing great

Jerry jones said he is not listening to offers for mike jenkins. He said he means more to the cowboys

Jones said nobody needs jenkins more than the cowboys

Jerry jones said he's not listening to trade offers for Cb mike Jenkins "nobody needs Jenkins more than the Cowboys"

Jerry jones said he decides when window is closing (not romo). He sees a sense of urgency. That's his perspective

Jerry Jones said Cowboys will not pursue any further legal action in the salary-cap case. Why? "Because I don't want to."

Jerry Jones reiterates the Cowboys are not trading Mike Jenkins. "Nobody needs Mike Jenkins more than the Cowboys," the owner

Jerry says he's not listening to offers for Jenkins... Wouldn't take a future pick for him. Still think player for player might be possible.

That is my thinking, I should say, not Jerry's. Still sounds open to me.

Watching DeMarco Murray run here at OTAs and he has a burst and quickness.

Jerry said he doesn't mind Dez back on PR if there's a long field. Translation: probably rather not have him back there full time.

Jerry also says he won't go to federal court over the salary cap penalties. Case closed.

"Not that I can think of" when asked a scenario for trading Jenkins that makes sense. Including a player?

Jerry said he can't see a scenario in which he would trade jenkins. Didn't want to talk hypotheticals. But reiterated he means more to cows (sic)

Sean Lissemore has a rib cartilage injury

Jerry said there's no way he'll trade Mike Jenkins for a draft pick. "No team needs Jenkins more than the Cowboys."

Been seeing a lot more of Rob Ryan using safeties in that nickel linebacker role trying to be physical at point vs run but cover too

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said there is no trade scenario he'd consider for CB Mike Jenkins. No matter the draft pick.

Dwayne Harris getting his shot with the 1s in nickel three wides package as the team works in 7 on 7.

Radway looks too stiff running routes. There is no flow to his movement right now. No quickness.

I don't remember Randy Moss slipping out of too many cuts.

My take on Jenkins hasn't changed. I believe them that they value depth at CB. But it wouldn't shock me if they said yes to a great offer

If they really want to win now though, a pick just doesn't make sense. Would have to be a player.

And yes, there are some injuries. Still May last time I checked though. Better to have them now than October.

Hatcher got around Smith pretty easily there. Smith got no punch. Would have been a sack on Romo.

Normally Murray pretty solid on blitz pickup. Bruce Carter worked Murray's edge who was unable to adjust.

What a difference a week makes. Saalim Hakim with a really nice adjustment to a high ball and catch.

Two practices in a row that Costa has had a bad shot gun snap that led to a sack. Team in two minute now.

I don't know why the coaches don't play Victor Butler but rushing the passer, he has been hard to block on twist.

I am liking this kid Madison from Arkansas. He looks short but you can't get away from him, ask Holmes the last two plays.

Teddy Williams actually made a play on the ball down the middle of the field to Beasley. While CJ Wilson didn't. Touchdown.

Touchdown, Kevin Ogletree.

A nice lob by Orton and TD catch in the back of the end zone by Ogletree, closing out the two minute drill and today's practice.

DeMarcus Ware has a slight neck strain...sat out today as a precaution. Remember, voluntary May OTA.

DeMarcus Ware and Marcus Spears have neck strains. Jason Garrett said Ware should practice tomorrow.

Demarcus ware has a minor neck injury and should practice tomorrow.

Rookie Kyle Wilber had the pins out of his right index finger, so he now is able to start conditioning work.

Jay Ratliff is out rehabbing a foot injury.

Kyle Wilber had the pins removed from his rt index finger. He might be available for vet minicamp.

DeMarcus Ware has little bit of neck strain. That's why he didn't practice today. Should be back Thur.

cowboys coaches led by jason garrett giving the media a coaching session film tutorial on cowboys schemes and how they install them..
