Cowboys roster news: La’el Collins, Damien Wilson set to work out for team, could join practice squad

The Cowboys might be reuniting with a former ally. La’el Collins for depth in the playoffs.

The Dallas Cowboys’ exact playoff trajectory will become clear in just one week, when the playoffs officially begin. Dallas will be the NFC East champs and the #2 seed in the NFC if they defeat the Washington Commanders on Sunday. If they lose, they will undoubtedly leave themselves up to alternative options, but they will still have the division and second seed.

While those things are unknown as far as the postseason, what is undeniable is that the Cowboys will be tested and having as much depth that they can for that will be pivotal to making a legitimate run. As far as the roster is concerned, one potential vulnerability is along the offensive line, something that the team clearly knows given that they are bringing in La’el Collins – yes, really – for a workout according to NFL Network.

This is a really low-risk move for the Cowboys. Injuries are constantly a risk, and Collins is someone who the team knows very well, and who can perhaps provide a higher floor than Chuma Edoga if things come down to that.

Obviously Collins played most of his career with the Cowboys, but spent the 2022 season with the Cincinnati Bengals. He has not played an NFL game yet this season.

Collins is not the only former Cowboy who is here on Tuesday to work out for the team, by the way. Former linebacker Damien Wilson will also be present, according to Todd Archer of ESPN.
