Welcome back linebacker Justin Ryan Durant. It’s not personal but I’m hoping you have very little playing time this season. The 30-year old returning veteran brings ten years of experience back to this team. Durant could thrive in defensive coach Rod Marinelli’s system. It’s just that I’d prefer Durant assume the role of a player/coach…with the emphasis on coach.
There are two opinions on Durant. He could be the savior of our defense or just a signing for additional linebacker depth. Durant joins eleven other linebackers currently on the Cowboys roster. Ten of the linebackers will have six-years of experience or less.
