We're gonna try 0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:48.440 to get to a lot of stuff. This is our 0:00:48.479 --> 0:00:51.080 final show before we take a little bit of a break, 0:00:51.120 --> 0:00:54.480 which Dave desperately needs right now. We're gonna take a 0:00:54.480 --> 0:00:57.400 little break here for about five or six weeks to 0:00:57.560 --> 0:00:59.720 let you guys catch your breath before we head right 0:00:59.720 --> 0:01:02.520 into training camp and startup shows on July twenty fifth. 0:01:03.280 --> 0:01:05.400 We will leave on July twenty four, pool star shows 0:01:05.440 --> 0:01:08.080 on the twenty fifth. How's every about doing this morning? 0:01:08.400 --> 0:01:12.000 I'm so excited. I'm great for your break. Just everything 0:01:12.120 --> 0:01:15.200 like Dave hasn't been celebrating since last week. No, I mean, 0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:17.640 I'm excited for a little downtime, but I'm excited for 0:01:17.680 --> 0:01:20.200 training camp, like this is just another step in the 0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:24.120 process of getting there. But like in the meantime, a 0:01:24.120 --> 0:01:27.080 little break sounds nice too, it does. I'm so looking 0:01:27.120 --> 0:01:29.040 forward to just I know, I have a couple of 0:01:29.080 --> 0:01:31.720 weeks of vacation coming up here and I cannot wait. 0:01:31.880 --> 0:01:34.440 Somebody had the audacity in the locker room. I won't 0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:36.520 name names, but yesterday in the locker room, somebody was like, 0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:38.560 how is your off season? Man? I was like, shut up. 0:01:38.720 --> 0:01:41.119 Was this a player? No, No, it was somebody else 0:01:41.160 --> 0:01:43.320 in the media. Okay, okay, well what you've been doing 0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:46.200 with all your downtime? Because they do what downtime? A 0:01:46.240 --> 0:01:48.200 lot of the media that covers the Cowboys, they do 0:01:48.280 --> 0:01:50.720 take a little bit of time off during the season, 0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:52.560 like one of the most annoying months of the year 0:01:52.600 --> 0:01:55.640 because like all the non all the other outlets that 0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:58.080 aren't purely Cowboys come out here and they're like, oh, 0:01:58.080 --> 0:02:00.760 like I haven't really been paying attention and like we've 0:02:00.800 --> 0:02:03.200 been dealing with baseball in the hockey or whatever. And 0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:07.160 I'm like, no, it's all cowboys all the time here. 0:02:07.680 --> 0:02:10.640 So anyway, how you doing it? Great? Thank you? Yes, 0:02:11.280 --> 0:02:14.680 I'm ready talking, man, get into this. Did you do 0:02:14.720 --> 0:02:17.800 some calistitics get warmed up here? No, I'm I'm warm. 0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:24.359 You're like awkward, but okay. Like the dog that doesn't 0:02:24.360 --> 0:02:26.440 need to stretch before it runs off the porch, just 0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:29.560 takes off, like Randy Moss his first ten years of 0:02:29.600 --> 0:02:32.320 his career. Oh yeah, he didn't stretch. That was the 0:02:32.360 --> 0:02:34.800 weirdest thing ever. The whole team would be down there stretching. 0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:36.880 He'd just be walking through the line just kind of like, 0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:40.359 I'm guess that would I don't stretch? Yeah, first, like 0:02:40.600 --> 0:02:43.440 Cole Beasley says, yeah, that's what I was thinking about 0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:46.320 him and Dak Yeah what what was it? Yeah? It 0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:49.200 was like I think our cameras caught it during the 0:02:49.200 --> 0:02:51.360 forty nine er game last year, Like Dak was riding 0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:54.160 the stationary bike to get loose before the second half, 0:02:54.160 --> 0:02:56.520 and Beasley was like, I don't need that, man, Like 0:02:56.560 --> 0:02:58.799 I'm like a dog. I just hop off, and Dak 0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:01.720 was like, your dog probably stretch too. I am still 0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:03.760 I remember that. Yeah, it was kind of a dumbuch conversation. 0:03:03.800 --> 0:03:06.359 Fun though, Yeah, Jock City inside. Yeah, all right, we 0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:08.240 got a lot of stuff I want to talk about today. 0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:10.120 We're going to talk a little bit about Zack Martin. 0:03:10.160 --> 0:03:11.919 We'll talk a little bit about this mini camp that's 0:03:11.919 --> 0:03:14.760 happening this week, final time the team will be together 0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.520 here before training camp. I want to talk about some 0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:19.919 comments that came out from Cole Beasley yesterday. I thought 0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:23.520 we're interesting about playing wide receiver here and the new 0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:26.760 coach and how they're approaching things. And then at the 0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:28.560 end of the show, I have a few questions that 0:03:28.600 --> 0:03:32.079 are kind of wrap up offseason questions that I want 0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:34.120 to do before we go to our break, before we 0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:36.800 go on our hiatus, because I want to kind of 0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:39.320 give people an idea that haven't been following along, Just 0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:42.119 kind of a wrap up with a few questions from 0:03:42.160 --> 0:03:44.640 an answers from you guys of kind of what this 0:03:44.720 --> 0:03:47.640 offseason has meant and what your expectations are as we 0:03:47.680 --> 0:03:51.520 head into training camp. So first let's start with Zack Martin. 0:03:52.120 --> 0:03:54.119 We've been talking, I guess for a few days now 0:03:54.160 --> 0:03:57.960 that this contract is imminent. Stephen Jones said as much 0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:02.400 on Monday. Looks like it could be happening any point. 0:04:02.480 --> 0:04:03.880 What do we know at this point as far as 0:04:04.000 --> 0:04:06.720 timing or does that even matter at this point, now 0:04:06.720 --> 0:04:08.920 that we really kind of know this is going to happen, 0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:13.720 I'm confident it will be completely done before July twentieth. Good, 0:04:14.080 --> 0:04:19.279 that's all I can give you. Probably before that, yeah, probably, 0:04:19.279 --> 0:04:22.360 but it will be done. Talk about hedging your beds. 0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:26.640 I like it. Yep, this, I mentioned this to you yesterday, 0:04:26.680 --> 0:04:29.400 Like this, it's like only the cowboys have stuff like 0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:31.240 this happened, which is so but you know, I've had 0:04:31.240 --> 0:04:33.760 a couple of days to think about it, and you know, 0:04:34.320 --> 0:04:38.880 this kind of leaked out at a sponsors luncheon here, 0:04:39.160 --> 0:04:42.320 not necessarily a media event, where Stephen Jones kind of 0:04:42.440 --> 0:04:44.400 threw that out to the crowd to you know, just 0:04:44.480 --> 0:04:46.679 kind of like, hey, well he might be a practice 0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:50.480 and then the media at large ran with it. And 0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:53.960 I mean, the deal's gonna get done. But it's so 0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:55.960 bizarre to me, Like we you know, we talked to 0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:58.280 Zach yesterday and he hasn't signed anything. We're just like, 0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:00.479 but how will it feel when you do? You signed? 0:05:00.520 --> 0:05:02.640 Like you know, you're going to be the highest paid guy. 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:04.800 He's just like, yeah, I hope so, because I haven't 0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:07.640 signed anything yet, and I do think it's gonna get done, 0:05:07.640 --> 0:05:10.640 but it's just weird to me the way this was 0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:14.360 basically reported as like it's gonna happen, but it hasn't happened, 0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:16.279 and now everybody's just taking Well. I got on Twitter 0:05:16.320 --> 0:05:19.440 and I saw it. I'm like, okay, when when did 0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:21.919 this happen? I haven't heard it from us, you know, 0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:29.080 our people. Okay, something it's not enough here happened. Well, 0:05:29.120 --> 0:05:32.599 that's what happens when you said a sponsored event. Yeah, 0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:35.200 and the media rolled rolled with it. That's what happens 0:05:35.240 --> 0:05:38.360 when the media is a sponsor. But see it was sponsored. 0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:41.280 But if we want to if we want to get 0:05:41.320 --> 0:05:43.680 into the real nuts and bolts of it, like the 0:05:43.720 --> 0:05:47.160 Morning News was there, they just reported as a sponsor. 0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:49.880 But yeah, okay, but they just reported what Stephen said, 0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:53.279 and then that kicked it into high gear with other outlets, 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:57.520 NFL Network, a certain reporter that anybody who follows the 0:05:57.640 --> 0:06:00.680 NFL can identify if you think about it, just he's 0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:05.120 that story was there. People knew this was coming down 0:06:05.160 --> 0:06:07.120 the pipe, and that just kicked it into the high 0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:08.800 gear where people will were like, well, I don't want 0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:10.400 to get beat on this, So I'm just gonna throw 0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:12.400 out what I got, even though it's not done. It's 0:06:12.400 --> 0:06:14.120 not fully baked, but I don't know to feel like 0:06:14.120 --> 0:06:17.200 I'm being left behind and exactly. And I mean, I 0:06:17.240 --> 0:06:19.600 don't think Zach was mad, but he kind of yesterday 0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:21.760 he was like, yeah, like yo, he'all really jumped on 0:06:21.800 --> 0:06:25.440 this considering it's not done. So it's just weird. And 0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:27.159 it's the type of thing that only happens with the 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:31.520 Cowboys because they garner so much interest and so much attention, 0:06:31.880 --> 0:06:33.800 and at the end of the day, the fans don't 0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:35.960 really care. I don't think they care. I mean, they 0:06:36.080 --> 0:06:39.960 want him to be at the left guard position, right guards. 0:06:40.279 --> 0:06:42.000 They want him to be at the right guard position 0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:44.359 for the next six or seven years, and he will be. 0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:46.800 Doesn't matter to them if he's the highest paid guard 0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:48.720 or not. But one thing. But I think I just 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:51.920 get the signature on the paper, yes, and it'll be done. 0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:54.120 I think fans should know too. I know sometimes fans 0:06:54.120 --> 0:06:56.040 are probably like, well, why does that really matter if 0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:58.840 they report that? Well, fact, the matter is just I've 0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:01.440 seen situations. You guys have probably seen something as well. 0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:05.200 Were literally we knew that there was a contract that 0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:08.000 was out there, like there's a contract that exists for 0:07:08.040 --> 0:07:11.040 a particular player, Cowboys are ready to go with this contract, 0:07:11.280 --> 0:07:13.040 and it sounds like the other side ready to go 0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:15.400 with it, and then you get months later nothing has 0:07:15.440 --> 0:07:17.640 been done with it. So that's why I think you 0:07:17.720 --> 0:07:21.400 have to be careful. Yes, there may be reported terms 0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:23.480 that are out there, there may be hey, this could 0:07:23.480 --> 0:07:26.880 be imminent, but until it's done, it's not done. And 0:07:27.280 --> 0:07:30.520 that's the part I think fans should most be weary of. 0:07:30.560 --> 0:07:32.560 When they read those kinds of reports. You just know 0:07:32.600 --> 0:07:34.880 that you're being kept up to speed on maybe what 0:07:34.920 --> 0:07:37.440 people are thinking and what could be exist, what could exist. 0:07:37.800 --> 0:07:39.840 It's not done, though, so just be careful with that. 0:07:40.080 --> 0:07:42.400 And as Nick said, by July twentieth, we should have 0:07:42.480 --> 0:07:46.120 some kind of conclusion that you think that's when it 0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:49.160 will happen, betting on that date. If it hasn't happened 0:07:49.720 --> 0:07:53.320 within a week, that's bizarre to me. That saturday in 0:07:53.400 --> 0:07:57.520 it Oh, July twenty sounds about right, But I mean 0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:00.320 za Zach said yesterday that he was like, I felt 0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:02.560 good enough about the progress we've made that I was 0:08:02.600 --> 0:08:05.040 willing to come here so, I mean, that's the best sign, 0:08:05.160 --> 0:08:07.800 right if he's. If he's I would be pissed if 0:08:07.840 --> 0:08:09.760 I were him and he hasn't gotten it done by 0:08:10.360 --> 0:08:12.880 a month from now, I mean geez. So all right, 0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:14.720 let's move on. Let's talk a little bit about the 0:08:14.760 --> 0:08:18.560 mini camp that started up yesterday. They have practices today 0:08:18.560 --> 0:08:22.320 as well as tomorrow. First, let's talk a little bit 0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:25.240 about David Irving. He's been out, has not been a 0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:29.680 part of the OTA's returned yesterday. First of all, tell 0:08:29.720 --> 0:08:32.280 me what he was involved in yesterday as far as 0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:35.240 just how much did he work in, And then just 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:37.800 just to give people kind of clarity on what's been 0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:39.880 happening with him, Why has he not been here, what's 0:08:39.920 --> 0:08:43.120 the reason if we know one, why he hasn't been here, 0:08:43.960 --> 0:08:45.600 and kind of where he is right now. As far 0:08:45.600 --> 0:08:48.400 as his status that you want to I want to 0:08:48.400 --> 0:08:50.880 just take that. No, I can't say it. I don't 0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:55.880 know anything. Go and well, clearly his girlfriend or baby 0:08:55.920 --> 0:08:58.760 mama or what people call it, I don't know, she 0:08:59.000 --> 0:09:03.079 got on his Twitter account, hacked his twitter started Twitter. Now, 0:09:03.480 --> 0:09:06.880 how he's been violent and going through you know, dealing 0:09:06.880 --> 0:09:09.920 with domestic violent stuff. Then it came out that she 0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:12.880 came back and refrained from the things that she said 0:09:12.960 --> 0:09:16.120 accusing him, saying that, you know, he's actually really good 0:09:16.160 --> 0:09:19.920 to me, he's good to his kid, blah blah blah. 0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:23.360 There were no reports I guess officially made to the police, 0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:26.320 or maybe there were, but nothing actually happened with that 0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:29.480 whole thing. That's all I know, And that's all I 0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:32.400 saw as far as that from what I've hear, I've 0:09:32.440 --> 0:09:35.680 heard he's dealing with the whole thing with his child 0:09:35.760 --> 0:09:40.240 and maybe trying to get custody of his kid. Yeah, 0:09:40.280 --> 0:09:43.000 I mean, and I think that is about as succinct 0:09:43.000 --> 0:09:46.160 as you can put it. With everything that is public information. 0:09:46.200 --> 0:09:48.840 I think, you know, it sounds like he's going through 0:09:49.080 --> 0:09:52.719 a breakup or some drama with her and the I mean, 0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:55.440 if you're the police got involved in first go like, 0:09:55.480 --> 0:09:56.839 I guess that was like a month a month and 0:09:56.840 --> 0:09:58.920 a half ago. But I think it's just it's a 0:09:58.960 --> 0:10:02.760 whole ball of byes basically that he's trying to get 0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:05.600 sorted out. And I think he hadn't even been in 0:10:05.640 --> 0:10:09.120 Texas for most of the last month or so. He 0:10:09.160 --> 0:10:11.880 didn't do anything yesterday. I mean, he's been gone, he's 0:10:11.960 --> 0:10:13.880 you know, they said he was out of shape at 0:10:13.920 --> 0:10:16.400 the start of OTAs, so you know they're not gonna 0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:18.280 be any better shape now. As far as what you 0:10:18.320 --> 0:10:21.800 can see or what you've heard, he's he's he's running 0:10:21.840 --> 0:10:24.360 with the conditioning staff. I mean, he's you know, he 0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:26.680 didn't do anything that resembled football, and I doubt he 0:10:26.720 --> 0:10:28.920 will until training camp. Does that at all concern you 0:10:29.040 --> 0:10:32.199 going into training camp, because in my opinion, he's one 0:10:32.200 --> 0:10:35.480 of your top two defensive linemen. Does that concern me? Yeah? 0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:38.040 I mean everything he's doing is concerning me. As far 0:10:38.080 --> 0:10:40.240 as what they're going to do long term with him, 0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:42.600 I'm trying to figure out how many sacks does he 0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:46.640 need to get this season to be resigned by the Cowboys. 0:10:47.920 --> 0:10:52.200 I think it's ten, yeah, because I think if just 0:10:52.480 --> 0:10:55.720 my opinion here, I think the Cowboys are like, you 0:10:55.760 --> 0:10:59.000 know what, we'll keep you this year hopefully things will 0:10:59.040 --> 0:11:01.079 turn around, and it's not looking like things are turning 0:11:01.080 --> 0:11:03.319 around right now. I mean, he's not starting off the 0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:07.080 contract year on the right way, and he's got to 0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:10.160 really get this thing back in his direction. He's gonna 0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:13.280 have to have an amazing year. I think to stay here. 0:11:13.440 --> 0:11:16.560 The big word for him, I think is unreliable. Like, 0:11:16.960 --> 0:11:20.160 and that's from a lot of different standpoints. He's had suspensions, 0:11:20.200 --> 0:11:24.080 he's had drama, he's had injuries, Like, there are a 0:11:24.120 --> 0:11:26.400 lot of things that have kepted injuries. Yeah, there's been 0:11:26.480 --> 0:11:28.880 lots of things that kept him off the field. Rings 0:11:28.960 --> 0:11:31.320 and stuff. I don't think that's been an issue, but 0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:33.640 he's had a lot of things that's kept him off 0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:37.040 the field. And when you start thinking about a contract 0:11:37.080 --> 0:11:39.240 year and you start thinking, like, how are we gonna 0:11:39.320 --> 0:11:41.560 you know, do we want to pay this guy? And 0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:43.120 do we want to pay him really big money? Like 0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:45.200 if he has a great season, do you want to 0:11:45.200 --> 0:11:48.199 invest a lot of money in him? Knowing that to 0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:51.960 this point in his career he's been unreliable, that makes 0:11:51.960 --> 0:11:54.720 it very tough, right, Yeah, but yeah, this reminds me 0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:57.560 of a conversation we had last night off air, which 0:11:57.600 --> 0:12:00.079 I mean, you know, yeah, from a football perspective of 0:12:00.160 --> 0:12:02.600 your especially, I mean, it's such a big year for him, 0:12:02.679 --> 0:12:04.719 you want him to be as focused as possible. I mean, 0:12:05.280 --> 0:12:07.040 I don't think it's exaggerating to say this is the 0:12:07.080 --> 0:12:09.839 most important year of his life, because if he does 0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:12.480 everything the right way, I mean he could cash in 0:12:12.480 --> 0:12:15.079 in such a big way, whether it's here or somewhere else. 0:12:15.480 --> 0:12:17.480 But at the same time, and you know, he puts 0:12:17.480 --> 0:12:19.600 something on social media like a week ago or two 0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:21.520 weeks ago that was like, you know, I wish people 0:12:21.559 --> 0:12:23.800 would be, you know, talking about the real reason why 0:12:23.840 --> 0:12:26.240 I'm not there, kind of hinting at everything that we 0:12:26.240 --> 0:12:27.800 were talking about. And I think he said, you know, 0:12:27.800 --> 0:12:30.719 there's no football if there's no me, and so a 0:12:31.240 --> 0:12:32.520 part of me is like, you know, you got to 0:12:32.559 --> 0:12:34.520 sort that out. You gotta get your mind right. I mean, 0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:37.440 mental health is something that people have been talking about 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:39.880 a lot recently thanks to you know, not thanks to 0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:42.199 but because of things in the news, and I think 0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:45.600 that's important. So I'm reluctant to kill him for that. 0:12:45.679 --> 0:12:47.720 I mean, get your life in order, and if it 0:12:47.800 --> 0:12:51.320 helps you focus more later, that's great. But at the 0:12:51.400 --> 0:12:54.880 same time, he's got a long enough track record with 0:12:54.960 --> 0:12:57.400 this where I can't feel one hundred percent confident that 0:12:57.400 --> 0:12:59.040 he's going to show up at training camp and just 0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:01.959 be all right and I and make no mistake about it. 0:13:02.080 --> 0:13:04.959 If if what Amber was saying or alluding to with 0:13:05.000 --> 0:13:07.000 regard to him having to deal with things with his 0:13:07.080 --> 0:13:10.000 family with his kid. I'm always a big believer and 0:13:10.040 --> 0:13:12.520 take your family first. You gotta get that stuff right. 0:13:12.760 --> 0:13:14.199 And because you're not going to be any good in 0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:17.360 other parts of your life. If every day you're dreading 0:13:17.400 --> 0:13:19.679 going home, right, that's not going to be good for you, right, 0:13:19.720 --> 0:13:22.400 So get that stuff taken care of. I totally agree 0:13:22.440 --> 0:13:24.960 with that. But and that's why I also said, like, 0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:27.559 when you say unreliable, there are a lot of facets. 0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:29.680 It's not just that, it's a lot of these other 0:13:29.720 --> 0:13:32.520 things that also are a part of the mix that 0:13:32.600 --> 0:13:37.880 maybe just indicates that he is somewhat unreliable in all facets, 0:13:37.920 --> 0:13:39.600 Like you just can't rely on him to be there 0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:43.240 because there's always something right, whether it's in this instance 0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:46.000 it's the family stuff, but in other instances it's a suspension, 0:13:46.240 --> 0:13:49.400 in other instances it's it's an injury. In other instances, 0:13:49.440 --> 0:13:51.240 they can't keep him on the field because they don't 0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:53.440 feel like he's he can, you know, kind of keep 0:13:53.520 --> 0:13:56.680 that same level of energy throughout the entire game. Like 0:13:56.760 --> 0:14:00.240 whatever it is that they feel like makes him unreliable, 0:14:00.280 --> 0:14:02.840 at the end of the day, he's unreliable. Right now, 0:14:02.840 --> 0:14:05.280 I'm giving him the benefit of the dial dow as 0:14:05.320 --> 0:14:09.200 far as that whole unreliability aspect of it, just because 0:14:09.559 --> 0:14:13.360 I mean altas were voluntary. So okay, he wasn't here, Okay, 0:14:13.440 --> 0:14:15.960 not a big deal. I'm not buying into the whole 0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:18.720 line of him being out of shape. I know he 0:14:18.960 --> 0:14:23.600 does look bigger, you know, a little more weight. Not 0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:25.760 he's not the kind either that he takes off a shurting. 0:14:25.800 --> 0:14:27.840 People are like impressed, like he's a he's a kind 0:14:27.840 --> 0:14:31.200 of I think he's kind of a little no. No, 0:14:31.440 --> 0:14:34.640 did you see him last year at this time last year? 0:14:34.800 --> 0:14:39.320 I don't know Instagram to where he was I can 0:14:39.360 --> 0:14:41.640 show I could show you an Instagram if you want 0:14:41.680 --> 0:14:46.760 the nude photos. Oh yeah, I don't. And I'm good. Yeah, 0:14:46.920 --> 0:14:50.080 I know I think it's noticed. But that was that 0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:54.440 college that was last fall. Really yeah, but again, he's 0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:58.760 not like obese and he's fine. You look at the 0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:01.880 guys that play football. He's okay, he's in good ship 0:15:01.960 --> 0:15:04.520 and he's playing defensive tackle. Ye got a little good? 0:15:04.600 --> 0:15:06.640 Does that? Really? So That's why I'm not falling into 0:15:06.680 --> 0:15:08.600 And again I don't know how the whole process comes. 0:15:09.000 --> 0:15:11.320 How you know what happens there when you come back 0:15:11.880 --> 0:15:14.520 during the off season and get back into football shape 0:15:14.520 --> 0:15:17.080 and all that. But I don't think that's the main 0:15:17.240 --> 0:15:20.840 story here, him being out of shape. I'm not buying that. No, No, 0:15:21.080 --> 0:15:23.880 you're you're right, but I mean he's not. But that's 0:15:23.920 --> 0:15:26.760 not that's not the totality of the story. Yeah, so 0:15:26.960 --> 0:15:30.200 see other stuff. All Right, it's a it's it's he's 0:15:30.240 --> 0:15:33.440 like the biggest variable on this entire roster in my opinion. 0:15:33.520 --> 0:15:37.320 All Right, there's a there's also a list of guys 0:15:37.320 --> 0:15:40.480 who are not involved in the mini camps. Um, I'd 0:15:40.520 --> 0:15:42.360 really like you guys to just kind of run over 0:15:42.400 --> 0:15:44.480 a few of those guys that are not there. I'm 0:15:44.480 --> 0:15:47.560 going to run over him. Wow, take us through the 0:15:47.560 --> 0:15:50.080 list a few guys that are not there. And really, 0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:51.840 more importantly, I really want to know if there are 0:15:51.880 --> 0:15:54.600 any guys specifically that are not out there right now 0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:58.080 that you have concerns about as far as as far 0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:02.560 as them being available for for for training camp. I 0:16:02.600 --> 0:16:05.560 don't think there's a single guy on that list, assuming 0:16:05.560 --> 0:16:08.280 they're not getting run over by a car by you 0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:14.080 or me or anybody. Okay, uh, light pole, Yeah, it's true. 0:16:14.240 --> 0:16:17.000 That could be a dangerous holiday. Hey, as much as 0:16:17.040 --> 0:16:18.840 much fun as it is for us to be off 0:16:18.880 --> 0:16:21.560 like it's a scary time to cover the cowboys or 0:16:21.920 --> 0:16:25.160 about you just like, oh god, no doubt about that. Um, 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:28.680 there's nobody on that list that really worries me from 0:16:28.680 --> 0:16:33.680 a long term perspective, except for probably MALIEK. Collins. He 0:16:33.720 --> 0:16:35.520 was in a boot yesterday. I I mean, he had 0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:37.520 this big old boot that went all the way past 0:16:37.600 --> 0:16:39.920 his knee, and I was just like, that's doesn't seem 0:16:40.000 --> 0:16:44.720 good if you're supposed to be practicing in July or August. So, um, 0:16:45.040 --> 0:16:47.200 you know him and Terrence are coming off foot surgeries. 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:49.680 Everybody else, I feel like, you know, I have one. 0:16:49.800 --> 0:16:52.480 You're gonna roll your eyes all right, hit me, and 0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:55.800 it's dumb. It's not a big issue obviously, But when 0:16:55.840 --> 0:17:00.840 I heard that Tyren Smith had like on his shoulders, no, 0:17:01.200 --> 0:17:04.199 I'm wait what, I don't roll my eyes with that 0:17:04.240 --> 0:17:05.960 at all, agreeing with you, but I don't feel that 0:17:06.280 --> 0:17:09.880 so that that was a big oh oh okay. Um, 0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:13.840 he hasn't been doing much during like OTAs and all that, 0:17:14.000 --> 0:17:16.920 so just by taking it easy, there's still a whole 0:17:17.359 --> 0:17:21.040 shoulder thing popping up. Yeah, that concerns me. It's not 0:17:21.080 --> 0:17:24.879 a big deal right now, but you know, giving his history, 0:17:25.160 --> 0:17:27.159 there's there's two ways to look at that, which like 0:17:27.200 --> 0:17:28.880 I could roll my eyes at you and be like 0:17:28.960 --> 0:17:31.240 a big freaking whoof, he's the best player on the team, 0:17:31.240 --> 0:17:32.960 like he can have as many reps off as you want. 0:17:32.960 --> 0:17:35.200 But at the same time, you're like, he's had a 0:17:35.200 --> 0:17:38.760 shoulder problem during non contact practices after having a whole 0:17:38.800 --> 0:17:42.240 off season. I mean, I hear you, and I'm not 0:17:42.280 --> 0:17:44.360 worried about it right now, but I just think that's 0:17:44.359 --> 0:17:47.920 going to be It's a thing that you're gonna have 0:17:47.960 --> 0:17:49.119 to keep an eye on for the rest of the 0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:51.560 Tyrant's career. I just I mean at this point, and 0:17:51.600 --> 0:17:54.040 that's if all you're doing is keeping an eye on 0:17:54.080 --> 0:17:56.880 it and trying to manage him, then that's great. When 0:17:56.880 --> 0:17:58.840 it starts showing up where he's missing games and that's 0:17:58.840 --> 0:18:01.640 where it's an issue, and the hope is that that's 0:18:01.680 --> 0:18:03.920 not been a trend that's going to continue, that he's 0:18:03.920 --> 0:18:06.119 having to miss games because of whatever the injuries are, 0:18:06.160 --> 0:18:09.080 particularly injuries to the back end to the neck, Like 0:18:09.160 --> 0:18:10.920 those are the issues that I tend to get a 0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:13.520 little more concerned about as you get older, because those 0:18:13.520 --> 0:18:17.280 things don't repair themselves as quickly as maybe other injuries do. 0:18:17.720 --> 0:18:19.560 All right, let's take our first break. When we come back, 0:18:19.960 --> 0:18:21.920 we'll talk a little bit about Cole Beasley. He had 0:18:21.960 --> 0:18:24.080 some interesting things to say yesterday. I don't know if 0:18:24.080 --> 0:18:25.640 he even thought they were as interesting as they were, 0:18:25.640 --> 0:18:27.359 but they certainly popped out to me. We'll talk about 0:18:27.359 --> 0:18:29.080 that when we come right back. This is Dallas Cowboys 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:30.679 dot com Radio.
