Rising stock: DE Marcus Spears
By JEAN-JACQUES TAYLOR / The Dallas Morning News
The Cowboys have had big plans for Spears since the start of training camp, but he tore some cartilage and missed two weeks of camp.
But he returned strong and has been making plays. Last week, he returned to the starting lineup after being on the third team when he returned from the knee injury.
Spears said his knees feel better than they have in a couple of years, and he's showing power and burst. Against San Francisco, he flashed his skills when he held the tackle to a standstill, tossed him aside just as the running back headed outside and made a perfect tackle.
