Cowboys 2026 Roster: Trimming the 53-Man Squad

Cowboys 2026 Roster: Trimming the 53-Man Squad

Author: Man Hour NFL Talk September 1, 2026 Duration: 17:03
Dallas Cowboys' recent roster modifications as they finalized their 53-man squad for the 2026 season. A significant move included waiving quarterback Joe Milton, who had been competing for a backup position after showing promise during the preseason. This transaction was directly linked to the team claiming running back Emari Demercado off waivers to bolster their backfield depth. Additionally, the team made the difficult decision to part ways with young running backs Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah in favor of more established veterans. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer emphasized that these choices were driven by the consistent performance of players like Malik Davis and the need for special teams contributions. Ultimately, these shifts reflect the organization's strategy to prioritize proven experience and versatile talent heading into the new year.
