Cowboys CB Mo Claiborne leaves practice facility and skips practice after being benched
According to ESPN, Cornerback Morris Claiborne skipped the Dallas Cowboys’ walk-through practice and angrily left the club’s Valley Ranch training facility Tuesday after being informed that Orlando Scandrick was replacing him in the starting lineup.
The Cowboys could fine Claiborne for missing the practice or conduct detrimental to the team. Claiborne has started two of the Cowboys three games amid Scandrick’s 2-game suspension to start the season.
Claiborne’s demotion came a few hours after Jerry Jones said on his weekly radio show that the third-year cornerback had not been worth the sixth pick of the 2012 in the draft, which Dallas moved up to acquire.
This is not good for Claiborne. The Cowboys could trade him, but what would he land you?
