After missing all of last season dealing with an auto-immune disease Dallas Cowboys center Travis Frederick says that he is close to full strength. Frederick was dealing with Gullain-Barre Syndrome last season and there were questions if he would ever be able to play again but those concerns are behind him.

Frederick is expected to miss upcoming organized team activities and June minicamp because of shoulder surgery but once training camp starts in July he told Todd Archer of ESPN he expects to be a full participant.

“I think that’s where we are in the point of recovery and I think that’s going to be an important step to my return, being able to go through (practice in pads) and there’s going to be rust,” Frederick said. “You’re going to have to knock the rust off during training camp and get back to doing those. You can do the movements on air as much as you want but it’s not until you’re going against a live person that you feel football.”

Frederick has been a big part of the Cowboys for a long time and they really missed his play and leadership last year.  Frederick has been a four-time Pro Bowl selection and is a two-time first-team All-Pro and the hope is he will be able to play at a high level again this season.

This should really help improve the offense and Prescott will get his center that he had for the first two seasons. Expectations are high for the Cowboys this year and if they are going to reach their goals Frederick is going to be a big part.
