​A tumultuous offseason for the Cowboys continues.





It's definitely been an interesting few months for the 'Boys. The ​Tony Romo saga came to an end, ​Jason Witten signed an extension, the team saw plenty of talent get selected in the NFL Draft, things have been hectic.





Unfortunately, amongst all of that positivity, there's a big wave of negativity coming through now. According to reports, Cowboys defensive end David Irving has been suspended by the NFL for four games for PED use.

It was reported that ​​Irving ​failed a drug test over a month ago, but nothing had come from it other than the initial report. The failed drug test was due to "supplements", which we now know was actually some kind of banned substance.

Considering the amount of weapons that Dallas has lost on the defensive side of the ball, Irving was slated to see an uptick in minutes. He was coming off a four-sack season and was expected to feature prominently in the Cowboys rotation. Unfortunately, that won't come until Week 5 now.
