Cowboys Waive WR Jalen Cropper to Open Roster Spot

The move clears a roster spot with team officials signaling key playmakers are trending toward Week 7.

Overview

  • Dallas announced Tuesday that Jalen Cropper was waived, creating flexibility before the Week 7 home game.
  • Cropper appeared in three games this season with three punt returns for 27 yards and two kick returns for 38 yards, logging limited offensive snaps.
  • He was elevated from the practice squad in Weeks 4 and 5 and signed to the active roster before the Panthers game.
