OL Parker Ehinger is the player heading to Dallas for CB Charvarius Ward, source tells Chiefs Digest. Dallas had been shopping Ward for a lineman. Ehinger did not appear with the starting line during warmups.
Ward has been modest about his performance so far, calling it only "pretty decent." But in terms of turning in flash plays, he's had one of the best camps of any player on the roster. The undrafted rookie free agent out of Middle Tennessee State has routinely gotten his hands on passes in both team and one-on-one periods.
He provided one of the top defensive highlights of camp on Saturday when he intercepted a Dak Prescott deep ball intended for Michael Gallup in one-on-one drills. Ward stayed step-for-step with Gallup, caught the ball over his shoulder, pushed Gallup to the ground and then cut back up field.
"That helped boost my confidence a lot," Ward said of the play. "I feel like I have a lot of potential. I can make a lot of plays on the ball, create a lot of turnovers."
Depending on how many corners the Cowboys keep - either five or six - Ward could be battling Marquez White, another player on this list, for one of the final roster spots.

So we get a player with an upside in a position of desperate need for a regressing backup OL? Sounds good to me. Dallas must have been desperate on the OL as we are at CB. [Reply]

Their pro bowl center Fredericks is out, possibly for good, because of some rare neurological disorder he was diagnosed with very recently [Reply]

Ehinger was a solid LG his rookie year. It sucks that his knee injury fucked his career up. He pretty much destroyed his entire knee on that injury. [Reply]
I had high hopes for Ehinger. He showed promise as a rookie before he got hurt. But he never seemed to get back to that, so, oh well. Time to move on. Hopefully our new corner turns out to be good. [Reply]
