3 Free Agents Cowboys Must Sign After Micah Parsons & DeMarcus Lawrence Injuries
Story by Jovan Alford
9/28/24

Dallas Cowboys fans held their collective breaths on Thursday night as they saw star pass rusher Micah Parsons carted off the field after suffering a leg injury. It was the worst-case scenario for Dallas as they also saw DeMarcus Lawrence go down with a foot injury.

But the Cowboys’ depth isn’t great on the defensive line, so they’ll need to consider bringing in a veteran pass rusher. The bad news about that particular option is there isn’t much talent on the open market.

That said, the Cowboys don’t need anything special. They need a defensive end who can get after the quarterback, and we’ve found three veterans who can do that.

1. Shaq Lawson
2. Myjai Sanders
3. Al-Quadin Muhammad

Are these available guys not currently on anyone's roster? I know we haven't had a good trade since A. Cooper, but is there any possibility of one?

I'm thinking they are just going to sign "stop gap" players because both players should be back within a month or so because the reports are saying " out for multiple weeks"

If they are truly going to give up equity in a trade they'd be better off getting a real DT and or LB for the long haul

Doesn't Muhammed have a 1 game suspension he must do first. So he does no good for them as they need immediate help.

Sign Yannick from the Ravens PS, possibly.

I questioned why Muhammad was let go after pre season in another post . He could have served the suspension during the Cleveland game and been done with it .

Reports are Reddick is too costly but would the jones even inquire. Highly doubt it cause they didn't with Henry

I brought up Reddick in another post . Suggested the FO do an inquiry as to what it would cost in trade with the Jets and what would it take to sign . Obviously Reddick at 29 would be a multi season pick up .

i thought we already had Mohammed? oh wait that's the guy who got suspended the first game, so we didn't bring him back..

i'll take one of those they're not going to sign three guys..

so Shaq would be nice if Zim can convince Jerry to go get him.. although 2 Lawsons as bookends could confuse fans watching and what not LOL.

If i was a DC id move Overshown immediately to DE/OLB in the parson's role, figure out off the ball LB later. Hès cut form the same cloth IMHO..

here's a list i found online

  • Marquis Haynes
  • Shaq Lawson
  • Kemoko Turay
  • Austin Bryant
  • Randy Gregory-umm nope
  • Rasheem Green
  • Shane Ray
  • Elerson Smith

yeah, that would be the report that the jets, eagles and the rest of the league is saying. Not a jerry thing

apparently, HR wants too much..sesm like forcing a trade asking for another is truing off teams... i mean show me all this interest in Reddick??

Overshown will not hold up at 230 pounds at DE.

Maybe only on obvious pass plays.

the problem with taking someone off another's Psquad is you can't put him back down on your PS have to keep them and Believe guarantee their salary? not f100% but i think that why teams dont do it too often,

I don't think it is guaranteed. But you do have to keep them on the active roster for 4 weeks minimum.

The NFL allows teams to sign players from another team's practice squad, but there are some rules to follow:


  • Release or waive
    Players can't be signed directly from one practice squad to another. They must first be released or waived and become free agents.


  • Add to 53-man roster
    The player must be added to the new team's 53-man roster and be eligible for at least three games.


  • Guaranteed salary
    The player receives a guaranteed three-week salary, even if they are released before the three weeks are over.


  • Game day roster
    Practice squad players can't sign with upcoming opponents unless it's at least six days before the game, or 10 days if the team is on a bye.

Practice squads are an important part of an NFL roster, providing depth and players who are familiar with the team's concepts.

Haven't heard anything about us even fishing yet? I hope these bozos aren't waiting to see how everyone does vs Pitts before they get off their behinds. We need bodies at this point.
