The following Dallas Cowboys players were duped by actress Carine Rice: running back Ezekiel Elliott, quarterback Dak Prescott, wide receiver Randall Cobb, wide receiver Michael Gallup, offensive tackle Tyron Smith, and others.
The video surfaced on the Cowboys YouTube channel today and was quickly up over 10,000 views.
It seemed like a normal media day interview for the players, however there was a very clever game going on behind their backs. Take a look at how some of America’s Team turned out to be more gullible than fans thought.

Rice puts Cowboys players in countless awkward situations as they think she is the worst interviewer ever. From answering her phone during the interview to pretending to pass gas, she does it all.
Some players go along with her while others are speechless. When the prank was revealed, players were shocked and likely relieved. This led to some of the funniest reactions.
It’s good to see some of the players dealing with contract disputes having fun with the team’s media department. It keeps everyone in good spirits, despite the drama over the last month. It could potentially show how close the two sides are to reaching deals.

Player News
The team released wide receiver Allen Hurns today and saved $5 million in salary cap space. They now have $24 million in salary cap space so deals look like they should start piling in before camp opens up this weekend.
As reported by NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport, center Travis Frederick is good to go for training camp. He’s planning to fully participate in training camp after missing the entire 2018 season due to Guillain-Barré syndrome — a disease that affects the nervous system.
Defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence will join cornerback Byron Jones on the physically-unable-to-perform list(PUP) to start camp. This wasn’t too much of a surprise as both Jones and Lawrence are expected to be ready for Week one, according to David Moore of the Dallas Morning News.
The Cowboys also will have some of these players featured in NFL Network’s Top 100 Players, voted on by the players. Jones was the first player to be listed in descending order at 97th. He’ll look to be one of many Cowboys to crack that list. The next edition for this list premieres at 9 p.m. ET on NFL Network. It will reveals players 90-81 in the league.
