ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Shayne Graham was playing catch with the rest of the Dallas Cowboys' kickers on the sideline when he heard a whistle blow. Thinking it was his cue, Graham trotted out onto the field. Only it wasn't his cue. He figured that out pretty quickly and sheepishly returned to the sideline. ``Way to go, Shayne,'' teased fellow kicker David Buehler. ``Way to be ready!'' It was a simple mistake, especially for someone on his second day with the club. Yet that scene during a walkthrou |

Dallas plucked the 24-year-old Los Angeles native in the fifth round of the 2008 draft out of Boise State. Over 48 games (nine starts) in thre |

| Irving, TX (MySportsbook) - The Dallas Cowboys have signed kicker Shayne Graham, a longtime Cincinnati Bengal who spent time last season with the New York Giants and New England Patriots. Graham, who kicked for Buffalo and Carolina in his first two NFL seasons before a seven-year run with the Bengals, appeared in just one game for the Giants last October before signing with New England in November. After replacing an injured Lawrence Tynes for one game with New York, he took over in New England after Steph |

Yet for all the attention either of these perennial losers receives it pales in comparison to the microscope "America's Team" has to endure year-after-year - the Dallas Cowboys. With head coach Jason Garrett off the hook for last year's disappointing campaign after taking over for Wade Phillips halfway through the season, 2011 will be his time to prove to so many who have been touting him as the heir apparent to the helm s |

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - The Dallas Cowboys and San Diego Chargers have wrapped up another day of practicing together. After a normal workout outdoors on grass Thursday, the teams moved inside Cowboys Stadium on Friday for a practice based mostly on situational work - with the scoreboard used to show down, distance, scores and time. Backs and receivers were not fully tackled, saving the hard stuff for when they meet yet again in a preseason game on Sunday night. Both coaches said they were pleased with |
