As the Dallas Cowboys prepare for training camp, they have made significant moves to bolster their roster. The team has reached an agreement with cornerback Robert Rochell on a one-year contract, following the announcement from his agent on X, formerly known as Twitter. Additionally, the Cowboys have reportedly secured former Oklahoma defensive tackle Perrion Winfrey.
In a strategic adjustment, the Cowboys released cornerback Luq Barcoo and defensive tackle Justin Rogers to accommodate the new signings.
Rochell has two seasons of experience with the Green Bay Packers, where he played in 11 games last year. He initially joined the NFL as a fourth-round draft pick by the Los Angeles Rams in 2021, appearing in a total of 28 games for the Rams over two years before his stint with Green Bay. His college career at Central Arkansas was impressive, as he amassed 10 interceptions and significant defensive stats, showcasing his potential to enhance the Cowboys’ secondary, especially as Trevon Diggs recuperates from knee surgery.
Perrion Winfrey, a 2022 fourth-round draft selection, previously impressed the Cowboys during a workout last week. He earned recognition on the All-UFL team this past season and was named to the second-team All-Big 12 in his college career, adding further depth to the defensive line.
These additions signal the Cowboys’ commitment to strengthening their defense ahead of the upcoming season. Fans can look forward to seeing how these new players will integrate into the team’s strategy, as the organization aims for a successful campaign.
