In the first two preseason games, the Dallas Cowboys tight end has been the star of the Cowboys’ offense and one of the top stories in the NFL this far. After spending a whole season on the practice squad, Rico Gathers has shown off his progress two weeks in a row but it’s likely that “Rico Gathers Show” will be temporarily delayed in its third week.
Head Coach Jason Garrett said on Wednesday that Rico Gathers is going through the league’s concussion protocol after colliding with safety Kavon Frazier in Tuesday’s practice. It’s highly likely that he won’t be cleared to play before Saturday’s third preseason game against the Indianapolis Colts back home at AT&T Stadium, and for a good reason.
