Injuries are common in the NFL, but Dallas Cowboys defensive end David Irving had an unusual issue at practice Wednesday.

Jane Slater of NFL Network described the unique injury:

This is clearly not how the third year player wanted to spend just the third day of training camp.

Former offensive tackle Geoff Schwartz mocked the situation on Twitter:

Irving was an undrafted free agent out of Iowa State but has developed into a key player on the Cowboys defense. He appeared in 12 games in 2015 and 15 games last year, starting two while tallying four sacks.

Unfortunately, he will face a four-game suspension to start the 2017 season after failing a test for performance-enhancing drugs.

The 23-year-old should still make an impact as the year progresses, but he will need to avoid any more damaging injuries in practice.
