DeMarco Murray Returns to Practice

Murray missed Wednesday's practice with an unknown illness

Pro Bowl running back DeMarco Murray was one of several big name Cowboys to return to practice on Thursday, after being held out on Wednesday.

Murray missed that Wednesday session with an unknown illness that had reportedly been bothering him since the win over the Seahawks last Sunday. Also back on Thursday were quarterback Tony Romo, who usually gets Wednesdays off but is also dealing with a sore ankle and ribs, and defensive end Anthony Spencer, who was held out as a precaution.

Of course, linebacker Rolando McClain missed Thursday as planned, as he attends to a personal matter. Head coach Jason Garrett said earlier this week that he expects McClain to rejoin the team on Friday.
