The Dallas Cowboys are facing unrest with a former Denver Broncos round 2 pick, who has expressed frustration just weeks after joining the team, sources told ESPN. The running back, signed in the 2025 offseason, is unhappy with the coaching staff, leadership, and chaotic practice environment.
He, who helped the Broncos reach the playoffs in 2024 with 513 rushing yards, left Denver for a new challenge in Dallas. His move was seen as a boost for a Cowboys backfield needing depth, but early OTAs have revealed discontent.
Insiders say he has privately criticized the Cowboys’ front office for poor direction. “Players and coaches were arguing face-to-face on the practice field, with some even walking off the session without any punishment,” he reportedly told a teammate, per The Dallas Morning News. “I’ve never seen this with the Broncos.”
The practice field has become a battleground. Sources describe a disorganized setup, with players clashing and coaches failing to maintain order. His frustration grows amid the lack of discipline.
Miscommunication and low morale plague drills, with his efforts to unite the offense meeting resistance. Known for his work ethic in Denver, he’s struggled to adapt to the Cowboys’ lack of cohesion.
Cowboys fans are split on the issue. Some echo his concerns, while others call for patience, anxious about the team’s early struggles as training camp nears, per local reports.
Coach Mike McCarthy faces a challenge to restore discipline, with Dak Prescott and Cooper Rush vying for QB duties. GM Jerry Jones has remained silent, but the situation is under watch.
As Dallas prepares for 2025, the running back’s unhappiness casts a shadow over their prospects. Can the Cowboys turn it around, or is this a warning sign? Stay tuned to ESPN for updates.
