Cowboys Bring in Goodson, Waive Abanikanda | Dallas News

The Dallas Cowboys have added depth at running back by signing Tyler Goodson from Atlanta’s practice squad, cutting veteran Israel Abanikanda to make room. Goodson brings valuable special teams experience and 33 career games under his belt, while Abanikanda, despite flashes in camp, has just six games and minimal return snaps. Expected to slot in as the third RB behind Javonte Williams and Emari Demercado, Goodson’s immediate impact will likely be on special teams — unless an injury opens up offensive opportunities. He joins the team Wednesday, aiming to contribute as early as Week Two against Washington. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
