Smith is expected to play right tackle Sunday for the first time since his 2011 rookie season.
participated Thursday in his first padded practice in nearly four months. He worked at a position where he last played in his 2011 rookie year. During the more than decade since, Smith has stockpiled muscle memory at left tackle, logging more than 7,000 snaps in 134 regular-season and postseason games, not to mention the many practice and training reps along the way.“It’s Tyron,” left guard Connor McGovern said.
. Given that Sunday’s game marks Smith’s first expected game action since an Aug. 24 hamstring tendon injury, the Cowboys could cycle multiple players at right tackle in various orders rather than rely on one. Peters replaced Ball for the final, 98-yard game-winning drive after Ball struggled on consecutive snaps in protection.
Right guard Zack Martin and Smith became teammates in 2014. They have achieved dominance together but apart on their respective sides of the offensive line. Martin and Smith each own a Pro Football Hall of Fame-level resume with seven and eight Pro Bowls, respectively.By inserting Tyron Smith at right tackle, the Cowboys preserve much of the stability they developed across the season’s first 13 games.
