    The Jay Ratliff saga in Dallas now has an added level of intrigue.

    The nose tackle will begin the season on the Cowboys' physically unable to perform list with hamstring and groin injuries. Ratliff didn't attend rehab sessions regularly at Valley Ranch, and sources told ESPNDallas.com that tension exists between Ratliff and the strength and conditioning staff.

    Ratliff was asked Wednesday why he didn't attend all the rehab sessions.

    "That's a good question," he said.

    Ratliff said he had an answer but did not want to delve deeper.

    "I do, but rather not say," he said. "Let's just keep the focus on these guys going out there playing and winning games. I'm not going to be here and be a distraction to everybody. Just stay professional about the whole situation, but everyone involved knows what's going on."

    When the NFL had their lockout, ask Peyton Manning what happened to his rehab when he couldn't rehab with his team's medical personnel.

    I'm thinking the Cowboys may have "suggested" he take time away since his DUI Seeing they had the problem with Brent being on the sidelines last season.
