Exactly one week before their opener at the Philadelphia Eagles, the Dallas Cowboys shocked the league by dealing Micah Parsons, a big part of their identity, to conference rival Green Bay.
Dallas had already pared down to the 53-man roster by then, but obviously that created a shuffle.
The Cowboys are now set to go into Thursday’s opener with 11 offensive linemen plus blocking tight end Brevyn Spann-Ford8 among their 24 offensive players. There are 25 defenders and four specialists after bringing special teams ace CJ Goodwin back on Wednesday.
Here’s a look at the position-by-position breakdown of the Cowboys roster.
Quarterback (2)
Running Back (4)
Tight End (3)
Wide Receiver (4)
