Spagnola: This Corner Might Be Getting Crowded
Dallas Cowboys
Mickey Spagnola
Just a minicamp next week. We get it.
No pads. No hitting. Far from real football over this three-week period. Granted.
But from the looks of things, there is some real competition going on with these Dallas Cowboys. Especially on defense. All three levels of the defense - line, linebackers and secondary.
Today, let s look at the cornerback position, and remember over these past two offseasons the Cowboys have lost both starters to free agency: Byron Jones last year and Chidobe Awuzie this year.
The presumptive starter at right corner is Trevon Diggs, last year s second-round draft choice who not only started 11 of the 12 games he played - broken bone in his foot after starting the first nine games of the season cost him four games and one start - but the then 22-year-old also led the team with three interceptions, the first time the Cowboys had a rookie cornerback lead the club in interceptions sin
The Miami Dolphins are in the middle of their organized team activities as the offseason training program continues. They have 91 players on the roster, thanks to a roster exemption for guard.
