Who is your early pet cat for Dallas Cowboys training camp?
Less than two weeks separate us from training camp beginning for the Dallas Cowboys and it goes without saying that we are all ready for it to kick off. Football organizes our lives. By having the weekly regimen and process leading up to a game we can design everything else to work ahead of it.
Simply put, football rules.
Training camp is a little bit different, though. There are things happening in a bit more frenetic way with practices happening day after day (relatively speaking). There will be surprises and shocks along the way and some of them will be the emergence of players that we do not necessarily see coming.

Some of these players will be truly shocking and impossible to believe when we look back at things. Other players who rise though will be ones who we, or you specifically, believed in. They have some sort of quality that makes you believe they are going to forge a path.
Bill Parcells used to refer to players of this ilk as “pet cats” as a sign of affection (or something like that). A pet cat is a player who is generally underrated but one that has your eye, love and admiration.
Alijah Clark, the Syracuse safety who the Cowboys signed as an undrafted free agent and who is pictured above, is going to be a popular name along those lines.
But who is your pet cat? Why?
