The Rolando McClain situation exposed differences between the Dallas Cowboys' owner and coach.

Before his 10-game suspension from the NFL, McClain had drawn the ire of cowboys coach Jason Garrett for missing OTAs while owner Jerry Jones claimed there was an understanding between himself and the player.

Both Jones and Garrett walk a fine line.

Jones can be seen as usurping the coach's authority in the locker room if he is not careful. Garrett, who ultimately reports to Jones, runs the risk of appearing to be a puppet for the owner if he doesn't speak his mind.

Training camp begins later this month, so the relationship between Jones and Garrett will be worth watching.
