Former TCU running back Ed Wesley once lived in apartments across the street from the Dallas Cowboys’ practice facility in Irving. He said he always dreamed of having an opportunity to join his hometown NFL team.

That opportunity arrived today, when Wesley took part in his first practice at Valley Ranch after agreeing to terms as an undrafted free agent. Wesley replaces Darrell Scott, who was released after failing a physical, on the Cowboys’ roster.
