The Dallas Cowboys on Sunday completed their second trade in as many days, shipping defensive lineman Sean Lissemore to the San Diego Chargers in exchange for a 2015 seventh-round draft pick, ESPNDallas.com reported.

On Saturday night, the Cowboys acquired linebacker/special teams ace Edgar Jones in a trade with the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Cowboys gave Lissemore a three-year, $6 million contract extension in September 2012, but his play dipped last season after he suffered a high ankle sprain at midseason.

The Cowboys will face San Diego in Week 4.
