The Dallas Cowboys are reshuffling the deck along the offensive line following the injuries to starting left tackle Tyler Guyton and Rob Jones, who has been working with the ones.

Guyton suffered a fractured bone in his knee that is expected to keep him sidelined for four to six weeks, while Jones is expected to miss a few months after suffering a broken bone in his neck.

One of the players who was expected to see extended reps in Guyton’s absence was Ajani Cornelius, who was selected in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL draft.

Unfortunately for Cornelius, who is competing for a roster spot, he found himself in hot water on Wednesday afternoon and was given the boot from practice for getting involved in a fight

That’s not the kind of impression you want to give when you could already be on the roster bubble.

Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer warned players earlier in camp that the next players to fight risked being kicked out of practice, and were guaranteed to be removed from the field if they threw a punch.

According to practice spectators, Cornelius did exactly that, throwing a punch before getting sent to the showers early.
