Cowboys 2024 training camp practice #8 live thread: Updates and open discussion
Another practice at Dallas Cowboys training camp is here. We’ll open threads for every practice so that the Blogging The Boys community will have a place to congregate and discuss what is going on at practice.
Unfortunately, dropping a Twitter List into this page no longer functions the way that it used to due to changes that the platform has made. We do have a list we recommend if you want to follow it in another tab. You can access it right here.
In order to keep the flow of things as smooth as possible though we’ll be dropping in updates and news items in this thread. Give us your take on them in the comments.
Editor’s Note: This post will be updated throughout practice with relevant news, information and highlights. The newest ones will be placed at the top so if you miss practice or want to see/read in chronological order make sure to scroll down to start.
