Cowboys Rookie Faces Internal Discipline and Possible NFL Ban After Brutal Slap on Rival Eagles
Dallas, TX – September 8, 2025
The Dallas Cowboys have officially announced internal discipline for rookie offensive tackle Tyler Guyton following his ejection in last week’s rivalry clash against the Philadelphia Eagles. Guyton, a first-round pick, was caught on camera delivering a slap to an Eagles defender after the whistle, sparking outrage from the opposing sideline and immediate removal from the game.
While the NFL is still reviewing the incident and weighing potential fines or suspensions, the Cowboys moved swiftly to show accountability. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer confirmed Monday that Guyton will face internal team punishment, though specific details were not disclosed.
"That’s not what this team is about," Schottenheimer said. "We coach toughness, not recklessness. Tyler understands he crossed a line, and he’ll be held accountable by us and potentially by the league as well."
The incident has drawn national attention, with fans and analysts pointing out the NFL’s history of harsh penalties for on-field violence. Guyton now faces the likelihood of a fine in the $12,000–$18,000 range, and league discipline could extend to a one-game suspension.

For Dallas, the situation is particularly concerning as Guyton was drafted to be a cornerstone of the offensive line. A suspension so early in his career could hinder his development and leave the Cowboys shorthanded during a critical stretch of the season.
On the other side, the Eagles have not forgotten the confrontation. Players made it clear during and after the game that the cheap shot will add fuel to one of football’s fiercest rivalries, setting the stage for an even more heated rematch later this season.
The NFL office is expected to release its ruling within the week. For now, the Cowboys’ internal discipline signals an attempt to contain the damage, but the full weight of league punishment may still be looming.

Cowboys Rookie Gets Secret Workouts With Franchise Icon to Become Unstoppable

Frisco, TX – August 31, 2025
The Dallas Cowboys are reviving their offensive line tradition with a surprise reunion. Former All-Pro center Travis Frederick has returned to The Star, working privately with first-round rookie guard Tyler Booker in grueling off-day sessions.
Frederick, the cerebral anchor of Dallas’ legendary 2010s line, recognized potential worth molding. Retired since 2019, he still commands respect among fans and players. When Booker arrived, Frederick saw an opportunity to pass along his mastery.
"Power means nothing without control," Frederick explained after one workout. "Booker has the raw strength, but dominance comes from leverage, timing, and intelligence. That’s what I’m here to instill—one violent rep at a time."
Booker, drafted twelfth overall from Alabama, has already impressed in camp with his size and athleticism. But the Cowboys know promise isn’t enough. To anchor Dak Prescott’s protection, refinement and poise under pressure are non-negotiable.
The sessions emphasize hand placement, footwork in confined spaces, and identifying fronts before the snap. Frederick demands Booker master the art of striking first, holding leverage, and reading stunts that derail inexperienced linemen on Sundays.
For Dallas fans, the sight of Frederick mentoring a rookie evokes memories of the dominant walls that powered Ezekiel Elliott and protected Tony Romo. It signals a renewed commitment to the franchise’s proud offensive line identity.
"Travis keeps telling me to fight like every snap decides the game," Booker said quietly. "That mentality—never giving ground, never relaxing—that’s what makes legends. I want to carry that standard onto the field."
If Frederick’s guidance sharpens Booker into a force, the Cowboys’ line may once again be the envy of the league. For Dallas, it’s not just development—it’s legacy reborn, forged in sweat, repetition, and relentless pursuit of dominance.
