Dallas Cowboy Safety Justin Beriault update

Mickey: Beriault just might be the surprise of camp this year. Passed him in the hallway the other day, and this kid looks like he's grown up with a year of weight training. Man, no longer that stick figure from Ball State of a year ago who was having problems staying over 200. Now if the knee is fine, and we have every reason to believe so, he just might make an impact at safety. He appeared to be very instinctive and is a good special teams player. Plus, he'll belt you one. Keep an eye on him.
