Ware's new workout regimen, Witten blurb
Ware's new workout regimen, Witten blurb
Around the League
In an effort to improve his hand quickness and strength, Dallas second-year linebacker DeMarcus Ware began taking karate lessons three weeks ago. The results, even in the short-term, Ware said this week, have been amazing. "People don't understand how important it is to get your hands on a blocker and be able to move him around," Ware said. "In just a short time, I've learned a lot, and I'm getting a better read now on what the other guy is doing with his hands. It should be a big help to me this year."
Ware collected eight sacks in 2006, only two fewer than defensive rookie of the year Shawne Merriman, in starting in all 16 games. But the 2005 first-rounder knows he has to be more consistent in his sophomore campaign. His eight sacks came in six games and he had an eight-game sackless drought at one point before authoring a three-sack game against Carolina on Christmas Eve.
