Miami Escorts: McGee, Buehler lead Cowboys over Dolphins 27-25
Tony Romo and the rest of the Cowboys’ first-teamers suited up and went through warmups, then watched from the bench. They enjoyed this one more than any since the opener, between all the big plays and the fact the starting offense wasn’t out there struggling to score.
Cowboys rookie safety Akwasi Owusu-Ansah walked away from a punt return in which he was clotheslined and lost his helmet, and later made an interception.
Miami’s Jake Long, the starting left tackle, left with a knee injury. He was treated on a table behind the bench and didn’t return.
Before the game, Dolphins general manager Jeff Ireland and Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant shook hands and spoke for about a minute, seemingly having patched things up since Ireland asked during a pre-draft interview whether Bryant’s mother was a prostitute. Ireland already had apologized, but this was their first face-to-face meeting since.
