Cowboys | Ogbogu in Peril?

Fri, 26 Aug 2005 19:18:54 -0700

Matt Mosley, of the Dallas Morning News, reports Dallas Cowboys head coach Bill Parcells says DE/LB Eric Ogbogu has a place in the NFL this season. Parcells just doesn't know if it's in Dallas. Parcells said Ogbogu was among the top three pass rushers on the team, but he doesn't know if he'll be able to keep him. Ogbogu hasn't played outside linebacker before this season, and Parcells thinks he'd have a difficult time making it through the season at that position. "He'll play somewhere in the NFL this season," Parcells said.
