Last August the Dallas Cowboys absorbed interior line setbacks that dampened some of the fire in the middle of the line camp confrontations.
Starting defensive tackle Maliek Collins was recovering from injury. All-Pro center Travis Frederick withdrew to address an unforeseen illness. Rookie guard Connor Williams predictably arrived at a disadvantaged weight. The concerns were plenty.
There’s just something uniquely exciting about seeing the big uglies inside go toe to toe when the pads finally come on. While last camp wasn’t ideal for these heavyweight fights, this one will be exponentially more exciting.
