Few rookies could call themselves fully prepared to play at Dallas’s AT&T Stadium as an NFL player, but Bo Scarbrough is probably one of them.
Scarbrough, the former Alabama running back, was selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the seventh round of the draft, and that will make him the rare rookie who has some experience playing in his new NFL home stadium.
Alabama has played four games at the stadium since 2012, and Scarbrough has taken the field in two of those games — all Crimson Tide victories. He believes that means he’ll feel perfectly at home when he plays there.
Bo Scarbrough on playing at AT&T Stadium: "I think it will be just like Alabama. That's home for Alabama and it's definitely home for me now. Playing in that Dallas stadium was just like being a Cowboy. Every time Alabama comes and we play in the Cowboys’ stadium, we always win." pic.twitter.com/adIkD6GGfU

AT&T Stadium is certainly going to have some personal significance to Scarbrough. Beyond playing a role in his college success and being his new NFL home, it hosted the draft where he was selected.
