The worst kept secret within Cowboys training camp

It took all of about two days for the Dallas Cowboys plan to replace last year’s league Offensive Player of the Year to be revealed.

Per a tweet on Friday from NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the starting running back job is Joseph Randle’s to lose. He continued to say that through a source within the team, the Cowboys expect big things from Randle, love his vision and explosiveness.
