RELEASED Cowboys waive Ryan Flournoy

[reddyuta]

I just dont get this seasons moves,this guy has speed,can get open and plays STs- i hate it.

 

[DuncanIso]

WTAF? Makes zero sense. Already short at WR and Pickens and Tolbert are on 1 year deals.

Jerry is now Al Davis.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Dez Bryant is coming out of retirement.

This move makes no sense. 4 WRs on the roster?

Right now. There will be another added soon.

They aren't going with just 4.

They can always bring one up on game day from the practice squad.

These moves are not necessarily final, often teams will make waiver claims or otherwise bring in players they're interested in for a 1 or 2 week tryout then let them go, bring back the old players.

Waving Flournoy for another OG is such a Cowboys move. The Cowboys now have only 4 WRs on their roster with Mingo being injured - and btw, he has not been that great.

And of the 4, one is a gimmicky player who is primarily a return guy. Flournoy is a receiver who runs good routes, has good hands, and can get open. And why another OG we never heard of? If they needed another OG then why trade Asim Richards who had some position flexibility. Plus don't they already have Saahdiq Charles on the PS? I suspect they will try to get Flournoy on the practice squad. But going against the Eagles with only 4 WRs seems like bad judgement.

 

[Teague31]

Any updates on him and/or Childress?

 

[J-man]

didn't see that coming

 

[sbark]

Case of Cowboy fans always overvalueing backup roster players, even mid level starters

Coach Shotty churn the roster ala Jimmie Johnson i hope

Dallas used the Flournoy roster spot to claim former Eagles offensive lineman Trevor Keegan off waivers. He was a surprising cut by Philly, given that he was a fifth-round pick in 2024. So my guess is the Cowboys want to get Keegan to tell them everything he knows about the Eagles game plan etc

 

[blueblood70]

They have 7.

Think he means on the actual 53 man roster.. But he doesn't realize some might be brought up game day But how much more do you need than your top 4 wide receiver is along with your tight ends and your running backs out of the backfield for pass targets....?? How many plays do you think we're gonna run from passing? There's only so many that can go around I mean I don't get the angry replies about this he'll probably swing back around and get back on the roster anyway..

It's not surprising because they went out and claimed Will clampin and now they had to make room so yeah in that scenario they were forced to make a cut and we ended up seeing a better player out there than we think this receiver is so it makes business sense people keep getting too involved and who are bottom three receivers are and they're trying to get a better roster built...

It confuses me because Flournoy has been playing well on special teams and can block. I like him over Tolbert. I personally would have Tolbert and Mazi off the roster and Flournoy and Brooks on the roster.

Sorry but I disagree tolbert is the only one that had 600 yards and seven touchdowns only two other receivers on this team are better production in the NFL matters he could be more beneficial as the 3rd guy with more eyes on other guys he could be a quality guy here..

Pretty went through this when Holden got cut and now we're going through it again you guys are like overreacting.

mazi might get cut But why Other than I make a roster spot for Flournoy but the Cowboys would have to eat that salary this year you know you're not a business person and neither am I as far as running a team there's a salary cap there's money owed and right now I believe it's pretty high to get rid of Mazi at this stage... Yeah right now him being the third guy in makes this easier to swallow the man can learn behind Clark..

That's the fact that where's Flournoy now did he get picked up by another team Did he clear waivers I was anybody checked I know Parsons trade through everything Out of focus but he should have cleared waivers by now or he's on another team.

If he's free maybe they bring him to the practice squad and cut somebody else...

Dang, with everything that went down yesterday, the Cowboys snuck this transaction into the mix (to me, anyway. LOL). I didn't even see this!! Oh well. Good luck Flournoy.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Not sure if this team is serious about moving forward with just 4 receivers on the 53; unless Mingo is a lot closer to returning than originally thought. Could get by just calling up Jalen Brooks from the PS for a couple weeks.

 

[fairviewfarmer]

Flournoy didn't play special teams.

First of all ,you can't return early, Like everyone else he'll be here in Game 5 ,if they want him on the roster,


but you can move up people off the practice squad the week of the game when they announce their 53 for the game, they can be moving one of these guys from the practice squad up onto the active game day roster, it's that simple you guys are making a big deal out of this...

There's nothing wrong with 4 wide receivers on active game day roster only your top four because you also have a couple of tight ends if not three, you have backs out of the backfield, I mean there was passing targets everywhere, hell Hunter is a hybrid kind of a tight end, but they'll throw him passes as well....
