Dallas Cowboys cornerback Tyler Patmon is said to be making the Year 2 leap. He made headlines recently trading slaps with $70 million man Dez Bryant, but the buzz behind the headlines says Patmon is having one of the best camps of any cornerback on the roster.
Patmon’s development, and indeed his very presence, is a testament to this organization’s commitment to creating opportunities for down-roster players through competition. Patmon was a rookie last year, but he wasn’t drafted. He wasn’t even an undrafted rookie free agent.
