The Dallas Cowboys are following the footsteps... of the Bears???
Remember when the Bears lost out on an OTA practice two weeks ago and the whole Bears social media went crazy? Yes, that's what I thought.
Well, it happened again today. Adam Schefter reported that Dallas' HC Mike McCarthy was fined $100,000, and the Cowboys were docked an organized team activity for 2023 for holding practices that were deemed too physical by the NFL.
The reason the fine is so hefty is that this is not the first offence for this staff. A year ago, McCarthy was fined $50,000 and the Cowboys were fined $100,000 and had an OTA taken away this offseason for the same reason.
Under the CBA agreement, all teams must film their OTA practices to allow the league to review and enforce the non-contact rule for voluntary sessions.
OTAs with live contact are banned by the collective bargaining agreement.
The Cowboys are now done with their spring workouts and will return to work in July for their training camp in Oxnard, California.
