Dallas Cowboys OTA’s: Competition Is Cowboys Catalyst To A Successful Offseason

Not unlike most offseasons under Jason Garrett’s leadership, the Cowboys have had near-perfect attendance in the voluntary portions of Phase 3 otherwise known as OTA’s. It gets lost on us at times, but none of the Cowboys’ players are required to be practicing, yet nearly every bit of their 90-man roster is present and accounted for. The only mandatory practice session is a minicamp that takes place in mid-June.

It amazes me that this team is working towards a well-oiled machine by participating so heavily at a time where you could be resting your body. Even guys that are dealing with nicks and bruises are still at the facilities supporting one another at practice.
