Well, amidst all the controversy surrounding Lucky Whitehead’s release and the “not guilty” verdict for Jourdan Lewis, the Dallas Cowboys had a training camp practice today. Here are all the highlights from that practice.
Two guys that have spent most of their time playing the right end are DeMarcus Lawrence and Damontre Moore. Here they are basking in the California sun:

Lawrence is by far the most accomplished pass rusher the Cowboys have and he’s seemingly catching some eyes:
Demarcus Lawrence is the best DL here and it's not close. Based on drills which is dumb. But he's explosive, healthy, strong.

Apparently, he’s not the only pass rusher that has looked impressive:
Tapper looks good too.

Here’s Tank Lawrence in the defensive drills, you know, doing defensive stuff:

In drills while most are just clubbing dummies, Lawrence stringing together pass rush moves. Rod approves.

Followed by Taco Charlton out there showing some speed:

One quick note, Benson Mayowa was not practicing today, he’s dealing with some knee soreness:

It can’t be all about the defense, Dez Bryant led the receivers in the receiving drills. Dez Bryant is always excited to be on the practice field.

Another update on Jaylon Smith, who looked great in practice yesterday:

You can definitely see the guy the Cowboys see in Jaylon Smith at times. There are moments where he shows flashes of something incredible.

Yesterday, we saw that Geoff Swaim was back to work, today we get a glimpse of James Hanna, who was moving well:
It's nice to see James Hanna moving around and taking part in practice. Sidelined by a knee injury for more than a year. pic.twitter.com/4fHLgGTMvg

Joe Looney or Jumbo Joe is working as the second-team center and he’s got an interesting cadence:
Joe Looney is playing 2nd-team center, and he calls the huddle by grunting like an ogre, really loudly. Sounds something like "BROOOOO."

It’s not fair to the coaches and equipment guys to even pretend to cover Terrance Williams:

Here’s an action shot of Ryan Switzer getting in on the action:

Tyrone Crawford is still healing up from offseason shoulder surgery but he says he’s close:

Jason Witten, the epitome of what it means to be a Dallas Cowboy, on and off the field:

That Dez Bryant is one really good dude, he even plays catch with his fans:
Kid was emotional Dez Bryant was signing his stuff, so 88 pulled him out of the stands to play catch. Kid was so happy, couldn't stop crying pic.twitter.com/fHBinWpqfL
