Turnovers Sink Cowboys In Preseason Opener Loss To Chargers

SAN DIEGO – It was exactly the type of preseason opener you might expect from a Jason Garrett-coached team.

Instead, the 17-7 loss served as an extended audition for the plethora of rookies, role players and longshots to showcase their stuff in a live setting.

“Just getting out there, I always have jitters no matter what game it is,” said Tyrone Crawford.
