53 man roster (expect shenanigans)

[DanA]

The current rules allow the following:

• You must make the 53 man roster to be put on IR
• Unlimited players can be put on IR
• Unlimited players can returned from IR
• Two players can be elevated from practice squad each week
• Four players can be protected on the practice squad each week
• One player can be elevated 90 minutes before the game (due to Covid)

With that in mind don't be surprised to see the following:

• Some veterans (Sprinkle, Canady, Kearse, N.Brown, C.Watkins, CJ.Goodwin etc) might appear to be surprise cuts on Sunday, but once players start shifting to IR (Sewo, Gallimore, McKeon etc), expect to see a few a these guys find there way back onto the 53 man roster.
• Golston & Hill could start on PUP. That means they can start practicing after week 3, before shifting to the 53 man roster in week six.
• The way we've played in short yardage situation in pre-season, don't be surprised to see a fullback (Ralston) put on the practice squad and protected/elevated the first couple of weeks.
• Expect to see Niswander make the practice squad just in case a kicker/punter is a late withdrawal

Are there any other moves people think the Cowboys will make?

There's not nearly enough bandwidth to cover them all, so I'll just say they'll be some...

Brown should make the 53 by virtue of ST's. He is on the field on Sundays. They wont keep on of the rookies on the 53 over him

Once they're cut can they be signed by another team? If so I wouldn't cut Canady.
