OXNARD, Calif. – The Cowboys’ starting offensive line will look a bit bigger this week, which is saying a lot, given the size of those guys.

Heading into the second game of the preseason, the Cowboys are trying a new rotation in their vacant left guard spot. Jonathan Cooper is still working at the position, but he’s splitting reps with Byron Bell – who, at 6-5, has the necessary frame to play either guard or tackle.

“He’s played some tackle for us, he’s playing some guard and he’s competing for one of these spots,” said Cowboys coach Jason Garrett on Tuesday.
