Tim MacMahon E-mail News tips
Reports out of Arizona have WRs Jamaica Rector and Jerheme Urban as bubble guys on the Cardinals' roster. If the Cardinals cut one of those guys, don't be surprised if they end up in Dallas.
Jerry Jones made it clear last night that the Cowboys won't sign a receiver who has never worked with Tony Romo. Rector and Urban have experience with Romo and the current coaching staff, as the Cowboys cut both last August.
The 5-10, 183-pound Rector, a Celeste, Texas, product, caught a ton of Romo's passes when they were both scout-team guys in 2005. Rector spent that season on the Cowboys' practice squad and started the '06 season on the 53-man roster after leading the team in preseason yards and catches. He was cut in October '06, signed to the practice squad and let go again after being hampered with injuries during last season's training camp.
Urban (6-3, 207) was one of the Cowboys' last cuts last season after spending the last couple months of the '06 season on the practice squad. He caught 22 passes for 329 yards and two TDs last season with the Cardinals.
Wade Phillips didn't exactly gush with praise about Danny Amendola or Mike Jefferson today. Rector or Urban might be upgrades as fill-ins for Sam Hurd and Miles Austin.
