The Dallas Cowboys have completed their initial roster moves to prepare for the regular season. Dallas, and all 32 NFL organizations, had until 3:00 pm Central time on Tuesday to whittle down their offseason rosters and get down to 53 players.
Teams had to either move players to in-season PUP, place them on season-ending IR, trade, waive or outright release players to get below the threshold. Dallas had some of everything, including sending 2021 second-round pick Kelvin Joseph out to the Miami Dolphins in exchange for their disappointing CB Noah Igbinoghene.
Dallas moved four players to season-ending IR and made a handful of moves that likely will result in vested veterans either returning as soon as they move some players to returnable IR, or joining the practice squad to be elevated for Week 1.
