The Dallas Cowboys came into the off-season with very few holes on the offensive side of the ball. One of the positions that did need a bit of depth was tight end after losing Blake Bell in free agency after one year with the club. While the team has Sean McKeon from last year’s UDFA class and two more from this year’s class, a veteran addition was sought. The team addressed these concerns with the signing of veteran TE Jeremy Sprinkle.
Coming over form the Washington Football Team, where he spent his first four seasons, Sprinkle takes something away from a rival and could benefit the Cowboys. Sprinkle isn’t likely to be a big part of the offense, but he might find his role as a jack of all trades in Dallas.
