I think i heard they switch him to the Mike too so i'm guessing that switches back to Smith for the time being?
Also an example of how fast windows can close in the NFL - if that D can't make stops they are going to be a very average team despite that OL and offense.
is not as stong as it was. Issues at RT. SMith has a back that can act up at any moment. They do have a nice young center from Wisconsin who will be good down the road.
but I have to think as a LB'er that uses the shoulder to tackle, it could be a bit more complicated when coming back. Dallas' BYE is week 10 so I wonder if he doesn't come back until after that which is 8/9 weeks.
his NFL career will last, injuries from the shoulder level up tend to have a multiplier effect, especially after one serious neck injury.
You can pretty much say that about all injuries, but yeah I agree once you get combination shoulder/neck injuries it seems like a wrap for a football career. Just way too hard to protect yourself.

Anything spinal cord related is another ballgame I know from experience, it's why I stopped playing.

Future too promising, no way i bring him back this year if I am the Cowboys.
A bunch of teams took him off their draft board because of concerns about his neck. I know this is the collarbone, but he is proving to have a difficult time staying on the field. I don't like Dallas, but feel bad for him.
yea on the surface, this isnt a bad injury but for a LBer with a history of neck, head injuries, this is just another "how much longer can i do this for" added to his mind.
Sucks to see but its definitely a big loss for dallas
Cam Erving, also sprained an MCL and will be out for a few weeks.
La'el Collins could be back in a few weeks for them, but they are thin on that OL. The undrafted rookie, Terence Steele, I thought battled pretty well but definitely had some growing pains.
dallas might be catching a break with their week 2 game

You mean Jason Witten 2.0 against the Giants!
WOW! What happened to him? Didnt see that
