Cowboys 2026 Training Camp Practice #8 Live Thread: Updates And Open Discussion
The Dallas Cowboys hold their eighth training camp practice out in Oxnard, California. We open these discussion threads for every practice so that the Blogging The Boys community will have a place to congregate and discuss what is going on out at practice.
Unfortunately, dropping a Twitter List into this page no longer functions the way that it used to due to changes that the platform has made. We do have a list we recommend if you want to follow it in another tab. You can access it right here.
In order to keep the flow of things as smooth as possible though we’ll be dropping in updates and news items in this thread. Give us your take on them in the comments.
Here we go.
Editor’s Note: This post will be updated throughout practice with relevant news, information and highlights. The newest ones will be placed at the top so if you miss practice or want to see/read in chronological order make sure to scroll down to start.

A little vet time.
Tyler Smith has been limited to a degree in some team drills the last couple of practices with T.J. Bass working at left guard with the first team. But Smith has not taken a day or or skipped an 11-on-11 period. Just maintenance for somebody who’s played lot of football.
