Cowboys Set 53-Man Roster

August 30th, 2022 at 7:49pm CST by Ben Levine

The Cowboys got their roster down to 53 players today, and to get there, they cut all their backup QB options, their kicker, and their long snapper:

Released:

CB C.J. Goodwin
LB Malik Jefferson
K Brett Maher
LS Jake McQuaide
QB Cooper Rush (story)
DT Carlos Watkins

Waived:

G Isaac Alarcon
DT Josiah Bronson
DE Markaviest Bryant
T Aviante Collins
S Tyler Coyle
RB Malik Davis
QB Ben DiNucci (story)
WR Dontario Drummond
C James Empey
QB Will Grier (story)
LB Storey Jackson
G Braylon Jones
C Alec Lindstrom
TE Sean McKeon
T Amon Simon
WR Brandon Smith
DE Mika Tafua
S Juanyeh Thomas
WR T.J. Vasher

Waived/injured:

RB Aaron Shampklin
CB Isaac Taylor-Stuart

Placed on reserve/NFI:

LB Damone Clark

The Cowboys are currently rolling without a second QB behind Dak Prescott after the team moved on from Cooper Rush, Will Grier, and Ben DiNucci. Rush has the most experience of the group, appearing in 10 career games, including five appearances (one start) with Dallas in 2021. The 28-year-old finished last season having completed 30 of his 47 pass attempts for 422 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception. The Cowboys also aren’t rostering a kicker or long snapper at the moment, something that will certainly change over the next few days.

Special teams ace C.J. Goodwin could also land back on the active roster once the dust settles. Goodwin has spent the past four seasons in Dallas, and he hasn’t missed a game over the past three years. The 32-year-old finished last season with a career-high 10 tackles.

Cowboys Add 20 UDFAs

May 21st, 2022 at 9:51am CST by Ben Levine

The Cowboys had one of the biggest UDFA classes in the NFL, signing 20 undrafted rookies to contracts:

S Markquese Bell, Florida A&M
DE Markaviest Bryant, Central Florida
RB Malik Davis, Florida
WR Dontario Drummond, Ole Miss
C James Empey, BYU
WR Ty Fryfogle, Indiana
K Jonathan Garibay, Texas Tech
LB Aaron Hansford, Texas A&M
TE Peyton Hendershot, Indiana
WR Dennis Houston, Western Illinois
LB Storey Jackson, Liberty
C Alex Lindstrom, Boston College
CB Quandre Mosely, Kentucky
WR Jaquarii Robinson, Wake Forest
RB Aaron Shampklin, Harvard
OT Amon Simon, Texas A&M-Commerce
DE Mike Tafua, Utah
CB Isaac Taylor-Stuart, Southern Cal
S Juanyeh Thomas, Georgia Tech
S La’Kendrick Van Zandt, TCU

Bell got a chunk of money to join the Cowboys, receiving $215K in guaranteed money, per PFF’s Doug Kyed (on Twitter). The Florida A&M product missed the 2020 campaign but returned for the 2021 season, finishing with 95 tackles and a pair of sacks. Bell has shown some ability to play on both sides of the ball, making him an intriguing prospect (and, presumably, a good fit for special teams).

Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com tweets that Empey got $110K in guaranteed money. The lineman was a four-year starter at BYU, although injuries limited him to only 15 combined appearances between the 2020 and 2021 seasons.
