Smith has been undergoing a long rehab after tearing his hamstring during practice sessions back in August. Since then, he couldn’t get back to the field. His condition has improved a lot, and finally, a green signal from the medics team would be sufficient to get one of the lethal O-line weapons back to work. Rookie prospect Tyler Smith will accompany the veteran at Left tackle, and the preparations for his arrival were visible a few days ago.
“I can’t think of any single thing that could help a football team more than to have Tyron Smith come in healthy at left tackle. I really can’t,” Jones said of Tyron Smith, hinting at his return. “So right there is the biggest lift that you could draw up for the Dallas Cowboys without exception,” he added. Apart from Tyron Smith, OBJ’s acquisition has been a hot topic of discussion among fans.
