Tyler Goodson Heads to Cowboys | Atlanta Falcons News

Tyler Goodson, who lit up the Falcons’ preseason with a 49-yard TD run and key catches, is headed to Dallas after the Cowboys claimed him off the Falcons’ practice squad. Despite being a vested veteran, he was waived once on the practice squad — now fair game for other teams. The Cowboys need RB depth after Malik Davis’ season-ending injury, and Goodson will compete with Israel Abanikanda for the third spot behind Javonte Williams. For Atlanta, this leaves just rookie Cash Jones on the practice squad at RB — a major loss after Goodson’s standout showing. Originally an undrafted Packers rookie, Goodson proved he belongs in the NFL — now he’ll test his mettle in Dallas as the Falcons scramble to fill the void.
