The Cowboys have a swing tackle problem. The swing tackle is, of course, an especially important position in Dallas considering that Tyron Smith hasn’t played a full season since 2015. Furthermore, the Cowboys haven’t had one player start every game at right tackle in a season since 2018.
In previous years, the Cowboys have sought out veteran tackles with experience to fill that role, such as Ty Nsehke, Cameron Fleming, and Cameron Erving. This year, they opted for a battle between last year’s rookie Josh Ball and this year’s rookie Matt Waletzko. Well, Waletzko has been injured and Ball has struggled mightily, with it coming to a head in Saturday’s preseason game.
