    Cowboys PK Connor Hughes told the Virginia Gazette that he outperformed PK Shaun Suisham in a December kicking competition, but that he did not get the job because of a lack of experience. Hughes said, "I was invited to work out a few weeks ago with four other guys, and despite doing the best, my lack of experience was a concern for them. I guess they didn't feel comfortable with how he [Suisham] finished the year and decided after the season to give me a shot." The Cowboys have signed Hughes, and he is expected to compete for the place kicker position in 2010.

    Good to hear...I thought Folk would of been our long term kicker but it's amazing what happens to a kicker once he loses confidence.
