KE was drafted into that position in the NFL. I don't like seeing players moved around after they are drafted in camp. Maybe it's nothing, but I'd rather see them impress at their position enough so the coaches wouldn't even think of moving them.
O line players move around quite often, especially tackle to guard. Not really the same as moving a LB to safety at all.

Hmmm. Probably not a good sign.
Unless it's just a practice squad thing and they needed bodies to fill it out, low man rookie gets to put in some extra minutes.
Re: 2016 Verbal: Jabril Cox
Or he’s playing safety on certain downs and situations.

Also Nick DeLuca.
But linebacker to strong safety is probably his best position. He can tackle, run and cover
Re: 2016 Verbal: Jabril Cox
It is a position for his strengths. Size speed and ability to cover.

I’m convinced there’s not a position group in football more prone to injuries than Cowboys linebackers. Sean Lee is/was made of glass.
Re: 2016 Verbal: Jabril Cox
Cowboys seem to be moving LBs to S (Cox) and Safeties to LB (Keanu Neal). Unless they are playing 5 LBs at a time I'm curious how Cox will see the field consistently this year.
Jerry Jones also recently paid a (Malik) Hooker to perform services for him (as a Safety).
