Observations and analysis from the Cowboys thirteenth training camp practice, which proved to be an unlucky for Byron Jones but saw a chippy defensive unit enjoy a return to fortune.
As I noted in my post-practice summary last night, Sunday afternoon's affair could be characterized by several general narratives: renewed work on red zone and goal line material; a heavy dose of runs, particularly between the tackles; a chippy defensive effort; the rise of Gavin Escobar and Devin Street; and an injury (not thought to be serious) to Byron Jones. most of all, however, it was defined by a steadily mounting physicality, pressure and purpose and a "ramping up" of Saturday's intensity.
