Cowboys 53-man roster, elevation-eligible players vs Rams for Week 8

The Cowboys changed out 1/4th of their practice squad and added multiple names to IR recently. Here’s who is prepping for Week 8. | From @KDDrummonNFL

The bye week has come and gone and now it’s time to get back to the business of winning football games. The Dallas Cowboys enter the next phase of their schedule in Week 8, a four-game stretch where they are faced with both interesting challenges and the easiest remaining opponents on their schedule.

First up is the Los Angeles Rams, who come to AT&T Stadium fresh off a loss to drop below .500. The Rams have a potent passing attack that will test the Dallas defense which has fluctuated between shutdown and carved up. The Cowboys offense is still a bit of a work in progress.

Coming out of the bye, Dallas made several roster moves, shuffling their practice squad. Along with the moves for Week 6 and the elevations, the landscape is changing. It will be interesting to see if the club opens the practice window on one of their eligible IR candidates.
