The Cowboys had a morning practice today before they head out to Canton, Ohio for the Hall of Fame game. Don’t expect many starters to see any playing time in this game against the Cardinals:

Tyron Smith wasn’t practicing for the second consecutive day, we finally got a little clarity as to what’s going on:

The first-team defense today was as follows:

And the roles have been reversed, Dez already has one touchdown pass to his career:

After yesterday’s sloppy practice, Jason Garrett was driving home a point in today’s to bring the energy:

Well, here it is, Jaylon Smith is practicing...again...in pads...again.

For those who are interested, this is what Jaylon’s “Richie” brace looks like:

Here are the running backs going through the gauntlet drill:

Here’s a quick update on some guys that are a little dinged up:

Here’s an action shot of the General, always showing folks the speed in which to practice in:

A minor scare for Dez Bryant but he can’t be kept down for long:

Seems more like the wind got knocked out of him coming down, he returned:

A receiver that has had a really nice camp is Brice Butler, here he is with a catch on the slant:

Another connection here from Dak to Noah Brown:

A little contact was made today:

Dak Prescott has looked great on these scrambles, he can really fly:

Here’s an Xavier Woods sighting as he wins his rep:

It’s time for some competition, here’s the best of the compete period:

We’ve got ourselves another cam scuffle, this time it’s Damontre Moore and Dan Skipper:

Here’s a closer look:

It’s safe to say that Dez Bryant is quite alright after going to the ground earlier:

That’s a wrap for this week’s practice, today was much smoother than yesterday's slop-fest. The Cowboys will have a walk-through tonight and head out to Canton tomorrow. The Cowboys exhibition game with the Cardinals will be on Thursday night and it all will culminate with Jerry Jones entering the Hall of Fame this weekend. Preseason football is going to be a sight for sore eyes, CowboysNation.
