FRISCO, Texas -- Dallas Cowboys Pro Bowl center Travis Frederick is not sure when he will be able to play again as he deals with the repercussions of Guillain-Barre Syndrome, an autoimmune disease that affects the nervous system.
Frederick will remain on the Cowboys' 53-man roster for now and miss the first games of his career, starting in Sunday's season opener against the Carolina Panthers.
"It's difficult for me personally. For a lot of guys in this locker room, you try to push through things," Frederick said, speaking for the first time since the diagnosis.
