Cowboys Sign New WR & LB To Fill Roster Vacancies
(Aug. 25, 3:43 p.m.) – The Cowboys have released two injured players ahead of Saturday’s game against Oakland, replacing them with two new names.
The team announced Friday that it had waived/injured wide receiver Corey Washington and linebacker John Lotulelei, after both players sustained injuries in the last few days. Washington had only been with the team for a week or so, while Lotulelei had been with the Cowboys throughout the offseason program after signing a futures contract in January.
The Cowboys held workouts on Friday, and they signed two of those – wide receiver Karel Hamilton and linebacker Lamar Louis. Hamilton is a rookie who signed with Cincinnati after going undrafted in the spring. The Bengals released him last weekend.
Louis is in his second NFL season and has spent time with three clubs. He signed with Arizona after going undrafted in 2016, and he was ultimately released in Week 2 of last season. He later spent a month with the New Orleans Saints. The Baltimore Ravens signed him last December, and he remained there through the 2017 offseason until he was released last week.
It seems like a good bet that both players will have opportunities to make an impression in the Cowboys’ preseason finale against Houston next week.
