Semi surprised it's Cropper over Jalen Brooks, but maybe that has to do with the specific route package they're hoping to replace with CeeDee out or that Cropper is more suited to play in the slot where CeeDee is vacating a lot of snaps. Either way, excited to see what he can bring to the table if anything.

Also, they didn't elevate Robert Rochell, meaning we'll have one less CB active this week vs. last week. They could go super deep on the d-line with Clowney now up, but my gut says Houston will be inactive and we'll see Jaydon Blue active for the first time tomorrow night.

Houston inactive makes zero sense . He’s been the most consistent edge pressure they have and badly needed against Love & co . Cropper over Brooks not sure about that either .
 
Jalen Cropper was elevated to the gameday roster, the team announced Saturday.

The 24-year-old was an undrafted free agent in 2023 out of Fresno State. While Cropper has appeared in one game as a Cowboy- last year's Week 10 matchup against the Eagles- he has yet to be targeted in the passing game.

In that contest, Cropper logged 12 offensive snaps and three more on special teams.

Cropper's elevation comes in the wake of an ankle injury to CeeDee Lamb last Sunday. While the team has not moved Lamb to injured reserve, his absence does leave the club short on wide receivers.

It’s probably special teams more than anything else.

that's why it makes more sense to keep him out of the game!
 
Who cares, if the team is trying, what its hurt? Ooooooooooooooooooooooo we lose the game? we ve been losers for 30 years. no biggie.

I think this will be Cropper's 2nd game in the NFL. He worked hard for it.
