3 Cowboys players who have gone missing at training camp
By Jerry Trotta
1. Kelvin Joseph
The hype following Joseph after OTAs and minicamp has really cooled off.
There was excitement around the fan base after Joseph saw work with the safeties and at nickel corner early in the offseason, but multiple other cornerbacks have outshined the 2021 second-round pick in Oxnard, including rookie sixth-round pick Eric Scott Jr. and Nahshon Wright.
Joseph has been involved in a number of camp highlights, but he's often been on the wrong end of them. CeeDee Lamb absolutely cooked him on a route in a video that went viral, and he's routinely finished second best on 50-50 balls.
How underwhelming has Joseph been? Patrik Walker of DallasCowboys.com believes the only chance he stands at making the 53-man roster is on special teams. Even in that role, Joseph has been susceptible to penalties.
With Scott Jr. looking more comfortable in coverage and the eventual return of Jourdan Lewis, Joseph finds himself on the periphery of the 53-man roster with three weeks left until roster cutdowns.
