FRISCO, Texas -- Raise your hand if you thought Darren McFadden’s first carry of the season would come while playing fullback.
If you’re name isn’t Scott Linehan, you’re lying.
McFadden made his 2016 debut in the 26-20 win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He finished with three carries for 10 yards, including a third-down conversion on a 3-yard run as a fullback in the third quarter. He played 12 offensive snaps and two special teams snaps.
“He’s been champing at the bit to get back out there and I think we saw a lot of that,” coach Jason Garrett said.
