Rookie Tashard Choice already giving back to the kids
Now he shows us that he's already willing to give back to the community as an NFL player, read here.
A rookie already running a football camp? I am not sure, but I think that's kinda rare. Bravo to Tashard!How many kids to you expect to attend the camp?
"I expect for about 100 to 150 kids to show up at the camp."
Is the July 12th camp the only day the camp will be offered this summer or will there be other dates?
"July the 12th will be the only day of the camp - no other dates."
Who else of note will be there helping instruct at the camp?
"I will attend the camp also some teammates from the Cowboys - Alonzo Coleman and Eric Walden. I will have teammates from Georgia Tech attend such as Michael Johnson, Jonathan Dwyer, and Morgan Burnett. More pro players are sure to show up. Also the coaches from my high school will be helping at the camp."
What type of advice would you give a kid who wants to learn how to be a better running back or better overall player in general?
"The type of advice I will give the kids will be things that they can take with them to become a better player and help their skills to become a smarter player. I understand how to play running back but I learn different things each day and the more you work on your talents the better player you will become."
Here's the info on how to maybe get a kid you know involved in the camp...

And of course Tashard had some info on the recent minicamps..
How does mini-camp compare with two-a-days in college?
"Mini camp and two a days are totally different because in mini-camp you don't have pads on but practice is still hard."
What is your impression of the Dallas Cowboys organization so far?
"The Cowboys organization is very professional and dedicated to winning and working hard."
What have they told you that your role will be this season?
"I don't know my role yet this season, but I will be on special teams and when I get a chance to run the ball, I will be ready to roll.
How can anyone not love this draft pick right now about now? I look for Tashard to have a minimal role in the offense this season, but he will contribute on special teams.
