6 Cowboys in danger of release due to Covid-19 impact on NFL

First we dive into how the pandemic is likely going to impact the fortunes of the NFL. Then we dive into what that could look like for several Cowboys. How the coronavirus and lost revenue will trickle down to how rosters are formed in 2020, 2021.

Other possible casualties

Punter Chris Jones

Jones is an average punter who is scheduled to make $3.9 million in salary over the next two seasons. The team could get a street punter for less than one-third of that total.

Fullback Jamize Olawale

Mike McCarthy loves a good fullback, but they could go with a youngster such as Charlie Taumoepeau (Portland State) or Sewo Olonilua (TCU) in the role for much less. Releasing Olawale could save $2.5 million total over the next two seasons.
