Cowboys 55-man roster vs Tennessee Titans in Week 17

A look at the Cowboys expanded roster against a Tennessee team that won’t much resemble what they normally do. | From @KDDrummondNFL

The Dallas Cowboys have set their game-day roster for their Week 17 matchup with the Tennessee Titans. The matchup looks much different than anticipated when the schedules were released. Many though Dallas would be hovering around .500 while the Titans ran away with the AFC South. But Dallas sits at 12-4 on the season and the Titans have lost five in a row and fallen out of first place at 7-8.

That record is tied with Jacksonville, the team Tennessee will meet up with in Week 18 for the division crown. The fact this game makes no difference to Tennessee’s playoffs hopes has them playing it cautious, sitting at least eight players and likely more. Not only that, but they will start third stringer Josh Dobbs instead of Malik Willis at quarterback. Dallas meanwhile will be without Pro Bowl running back Tony Pollard, fueling the need for one of their two practice squad callups. Qadree Ollison will be the third-string backup behind Ezekiel Elliott and UDFA Malik Davis, who should see extensive action. Here’s a look at the 55 players Dallas will choose from to be active.
