Dallas Cowboys: Players take to Twitter with bold messages

While the Dallas Cowboys stay active during June mini-camps, players take to social media with a variety of entertaining messages.

As Dallas Cowboys fans begin the sluggish month of June in anticipation of the 2017 NFL season, let’s take a moment to have some fun. Players post on social media more fearlessly than ever, sometimes to the chagrin of their coaches and owners. Nonetheless, we the fans enjoy the banter.

In what is considered his latest publicity stunt, former NFL wide receiver Chad Johnson, aka “Ocho Cinco,” has decided to challenge top NFL receivers to a little one-on-one, as he plays defensive back against them. Dez Bryant has apparently decided to take Johnson up on this challenge. Bryant didn’t waste words when responding to Johnson’s challenge:

What in the world is this all about? It may not be appropriate for me to “LOL” here, but I can’t help myself. Please Dez…just don’t get hurt. Or maybe just pass on this altogether.

While “Ocho Cinco” plays his reality-show style games, true defensive back Orlando Scandrick is focusing on breaking up passes in a more meaningful way for Cowboys Nation.

Although I’m not sure that’s an interception (but maybe a touch of holding), let’s just agree that it is. It appears Scandrick has his mind where it belongs; taking the football away from the Dallas Cowboys NFC East rival Washington Redskins. They say it helps to visualize an outcome, so keep at it Orlando!

Keeping with the theme of defensive backs, second year player Anthony Brown wants to remind the public that he’s not “just a guy” in the Cowboys defensive backfield with his retweet from Pro Football Focus;

Finally, let’s hear from rookie receiver Ryan Switzer on what he thinks of his chances of making the team;

He seems fairly confident. Not only are fans already buying his jersey, the second commenter on this tweet states that he is drafting Switzer in the first round of his fantasy league.

It’s that sweet spot on the NFL calendar where all things are possible and spirits are high. Players believe they will make the team. Others believe they will start. Fox Sports believes that the Cleveland Browns could make the playoffs . And rookie defensive end Taco Charlton believes he’ll just have another taco.
