Cowboys rookie running back Joseph Randle is looking forward to training camp now that the cast is off his surgically repaired thumb.
"Don't get me wrong, I've been putting in some good work," he said to the Cowboys' official team website. "There's a lot of other things I can be doing, and I can't be concerned with what I can't do right now. I'm getting a lot of great conditioning in."
While he wasn't able to do extensive running back work with his teammates, Randle said the solitary work could benefit him in ways he hasn't seen before.
"I think I'll be coming into the year in the best shape I've ever been in -- physically, and all of that," Randle said. "Learning the playbook, too -- we've been grinding on the plays. Because you won't be on the field anyway if you don't know the plays."
