With a new coaching staff and a group of players looking to rebound from a 7-9 finish last year, there's been a different level of intensity at Dallas Cowboys training camp. It helps that Brian Schottenheimer is striving to instill a level of toughness into his team, but the players deserve credit for meeting the challenge.
A certain number of players are reveling under the pressure, including cornerback Kaiir Elam and undrafted wide receiver Traeshon Holden. Others haven't been as opportunistic.
Schotteheimer has stressed that players will have to earn their spot on the team.
