Ron Leary remains the odd man out of the Dallas Cowboys’ offensive line unit.
He has the ability to start in the NFL, but has been surpassed by second-year pro La’el Collins at left guard. Now, all Leary can do is keep a positive mindset and hope that another team gives the Cowboys enough in return to facilitate a trade.
Leary has been slowed by a groin injury of late and won’t play in Thursday’s preseason game at Seattle, but brushed off the notion that could impact his potential trade value.
“I think every team knows what I can do by now,” said Leary, who started 31 of 32 games at left guard for the Cowboys in 2013-14. “I’ve been playing for a while now, so not playing in a preseason game isn’t going to have teams wondering what I can do.”

Leary, 27, said he feels good physically and is simply taking a cautious approach with the regular season a couple weeks away.
Leary, who sat out voluntary team activities in the off-season after demanding a trade, has kept a positive attitude for the most part. He is under contract for $2.553 million after signing his restricted free agent tender before the draft.
