The Dallas Cowboys have released their initial 53-man roster. Tuesday marked the last day for roster cuts as teams had to get the rosters down to 53 players now that the preseason is over.
Joe Milton will serve as the Cowboys’ primary backup quarterback to Dak Prescott, and the franchise will carry three running backs on the roster. Rookie Jaydon Blue will join Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders at the position, meaning Deuce Vaughn has officially been waived.
The Cowboys also waived wide receiver Jalen Brooks and traded offensive lineman Asim Richards to the New Orleans Saints. Now, the roster is officially down to 53 with just over a week to go until the season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Additionally, the Cowboys are placing two players on injured reserve, as ESPN’s Todd Archer reported. Wide receiver Jonathan Mingo and defensive end Payton Turner will both start the year on IR and will miss at least the first four games of the season.
This story will be updated.
