FRISCO, Texas (AP) Jaylon Smith dodged specific questions about practice time and a brace the Dallas linebacker wears around his left foot and ankle 18 months after a devastating knee injury in his final game at Notre Dame.
The vague approach has been Smith’s preference since the Cowboys drafted him last year despite the injury, knowing he probably wouldn’t play as a rookie. Now that reporters have finally seen him in practice for the first time, not much has changed in Smith’s answers.
”Just doing everything I’ve been doing,” he said with a smile Wednesday as Dallas wrapped up three weeks of offseason practice before next week’s three-day minicamp.
