Folks have been curious about Dan Bailey after some injuries and late season misses. Bailey missed his first field goal attempt on day one but he’s been lights out since:

Randy Gregory was spotted talking with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones who always believes in second chances. Gregory’s worked hard for this opportunity to take advantage of his.

How about a few action shots of the running backs going through drills? Ezekiel Elliott leads the way. Shout out to our very own RJ Ochoa, who’s repping BTB in SoCal:

Byron Jones just had a gorgeous breakup. I’d say the move to corner is going well.

Revenge is a dish best served cold, Lance Lenoir went on a tear against Byron shortly after, getting the better of him on this day:

A few reps later, Lenoir draws the holding penalty on Byron. Lenoir is definitely putting himself in the conversation:
