Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said DE Sam Williams is still “maturing” after getting busted for his second speeding offense this year. In the end, Jones doesn’t think Williams’ driving violations will impact his time on the field.
“This sounds a little hollow, but he is maturing,” Jones said, via Michael Gehlken of the Dallas Morning News. “… We’ll get it down. I don’t anticipate this impacting his time on the field, and I do have all the details.”
Cowboys HC Mike McCarthy expressed confidence in Williams.
“He knows what he needs to do. We can all be better. …I believe in Sam Williams. I obviously did when we drafted him, and I do even more now.”
Rams HC Sean McVay said OL Joseph Noteboom is one of the team’s five best offensive linemen and said they’re still deciding whether he will fit in at tackle or guard this season.
“I think he’s played that way during camp. Again, the interesting thing is to get better at football, you have to be able to play football,” McVay said, via Rams Wire. “And so we want to be able to find that five and the way that it fits together and it’s hard to be able to see that if we don’t have people out here. And so all we can do is continue to work with the guys that are available. I want to see them continue to take steps in the right direction, but I’ve been super pleased with the camp that Joe has had. I think he’s played outstanding at tackle and guard. When he gets back then we’ll have to figure out, all right, which one of those spots do we want to be able to rep him at? But in the midst of his absence, I’ve been really proud of the guys that have stepped up.”
