Lost among the numerous fights that broke out during the Cowboys and Rams co-practice yesterday was an event that was much more scary. Cowboys guard Zack Martin injured his neck on a running play and ended up staying on the ground for several minutes. Whenever a neck is involved in any kind of injury, caution is the keyword. The Cowboys training staff surrounded Martin leaving many observers wondering if Martin had sustained a serious injury.
Quarterback Tony Romo and the rest of the starting offensive linemen gathered around Martin while he was being checked.
