Other Roster Notes

- Jerry Jones speaking to 105.3 The Fan on Friday stated that Taco Charlton will be on the 53-man roster after having a “great camp.”
- Stephen Jones spoke to 105.3 The Fan as well and was under the impression that Randy Gregory has filed for reinstatement.

The only even remote surprise on that list so far is Justin Phillips…
I was a bit surprised by Phillips, cause I thought he’d played well enough, but it probably means they’re rolling with March and Gifford or March and Covington on the 53-man roster.
Why did they put Daniel Ross on IR instead of releasing him with an injury settlement? He has just faded into the back ground now that they have all the new guys on the team. I agree Justin Phillips was a surprise on this list. I thought they were so high on this guy, or maybe they are going to try and sneak him onto the PS, good luck.
They want to bring him back next year… the injury settlement would likely be near what his salary is as a low rookie and now no one else can snatch him up.
Because there’s no reason to release him. They have several guys on one-year contracts on the defensive line, including Antwaun Woods and Maliek Collins.
I think Dallas should cut ties with Randy Gregory apparently football is not his priority
On the contrary, all reports are that Randy Gregory has been very diligent in his attempt to come back. His most recent suspension may not be due at all to a failed test. He could have not adhered to the terms of his reinstatement.
All indications are that the NFL is softening its stance on Marijuana as an alternative therapy for pain and mental health, and if that’s the case, Gregory won’t have these issues to deal with in the future.
The only “surprise” (for me) is Daniel Wise.
Otherwise, my pet cats were Wise, Olumba, Phillips and Cedrick Wilson. And thought I’m not of big fan of Trysten Hill and Taco Charlton, I trust Will McClay and company to build the team. Hopefully my pet cats will make the practice squad.
Slight confusion- they’ve cut 30 and IR’d 5. (35). Didn’t they need to cut 37 players?
(Just wondering).
