Schottenheimer Enforces Discipline at Cowboys Camp

Dallas Cowboys' new head coach Brian Schottenheimer imposed strict discipline during 2025 training camp after multiple on-field fights, ejecting rookie tackle Ajani Cornelius and ending practice early with team-wide punishment sprints. Schottenheimer delivered expletive-filled speeches and enforced accountability by making both players and coaches run, signaling a shift in team culture. Veteran receiver CeeDee Lamb and lineman Nate Thomas expressed support for the coach's tough approach, stressing the importance of balancing aggression with respect for teammates. The Cowboys, who have struggled with penalties and turnovers in recent years, are aiming to improve on last season's 7-10 record. Schottenheimer has also hinted at possible financial penalties for future altercations. His actions reflect a commitment to fostering a more disciplined, focused, and competitive squad.
