RELEASED Cowboys waived four players, including Malik Davis

[Hadenough]

The Malik Davis deal was a little weird. I thought the kid had a little something. I would text the guys on the Fan and ask what the deal was with him. More than one guy said the team was mad at him for not going into a game once. I would reply Then cut him! never got a reply to that. Imagine keeping a guy on your roster but not playing him, to spite him. lol sounds very Jerry.

Yeah there was word out a couple years ago that Davis was pissed off and complaining about not getting any playing time. The coaches didn't like him complaining so he didn't really get any time. In my opinion when he did play he looked better than Zeke. Davis and Dowdle should of been splitting carries and Zeke never should of been brought back. I think there is a lot of favoritism on the Dallas team because in no way should Deuce still be on the team over Davis.

 

[Flamma]

No reason to believe he won't.

Sure there is. Not everyone is a hit. When someone inquired about him, and one of the coaches response was, it's up to him. That's not a particularly encouraging answer.

Waletzsko and ball should be next...

Ball left last year

Agreed

I get what you’re saying even though you missed the my point. Those kind of players should be cycled through regularly. They don’t move the needle.

He was cycled. He was practice squad for a year, one year on the 53 man and then cut

May as well just watch National Geographic....even Jerry can't screw that up

Jerry.......Challenge accepted!!!!

I was sorry to see that Malik Davis wasn't afforded a better chance to make this team's roster. It seems to me that his play during last year's preseason was worthy of sticking around for 2025. I don't see where his play justified allowing his being released, considering his scant playing opportunities. Ultimately, I think Jerry will regret letting him go, in favor of keeping Deuce -- a big mistake.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

What's up with all the Malik Davis lovers? What's he done to garner praise? Each to their own I guess, but I'm struggling to see how it's such a loss , him being cut.

I guess nobody remembers that '22 playoff game when Pollard got hurt and Davis missed a couple of blitz pickups that got Dak hit and we had to go with pitiful Zeke the rest of the game.

I would have released him after that and never had him back.

He had chances. Not enough but he just never seized the job

 

[J-man]

Let’s hope Steele is a cut soon

They can't, it's too much dead cap $.
We need to pray he returns to form 2 years removed from his acl tear.

To totally fair, neither did Deuce, imho. He runs were often stymied.

I honestly believe Malik would have won out, if he had more action.

Like most rookie RBs, Malik needed development for blitz pickups.

 

[TwentyOne]

There goes the championship....

 

[DuncanIso]

And Solari isn't here...lol

I read the solari hate, but don’t be fooled.

An elite OL coach.

Not his fault Big Mike was the HC.

He was a one cut runner. Straight line.

Decent speed.

Scrub.

Deuce likely fits the running scheme better. It’s being overlooked that Riley is the guy that coached Vaughn to 3600 yards (34 TDs) + 1280 receiving yards (9 TDs) in 3 years.
