The Dallas Cowboys added some depth to their defensive line in wake of the David Irving news.





Per Ian Rapoport, Dallas and defensive tackle Daniel Ross have come to terms on a one-year deal.

Ross appeared in 13 games for Dallas in 2018, recording 14 tackles, one sack, one forced fumble, and a fumble recovery.





The 6-foot-3, 300-pound D-lineman made his way onto an NFL roster after stints in junior college and the CFL. Ross made a name for himself with the Cowboys coaching staff when he made this big play in Dallas' Week 5 defensive battle against the Carolina Panthers.

The 25-year-old defensive tackle also had a solid game against the Houston Texans when he was able to generate a ton of pressure on Deshaun Watson in limited action.

The signing of Ross is a nice move for Dallas, who is looking to fill the void left behind by Irving and his suspension/retirement.





On the offensive side of the ball, wide receiver Allen Hurns and center Joe Looney will be returning to Dallas as well after the team picked up their contract options.

Hurns has been working his way back from a devastating ankle injury he suffered in the playoffs and Looney is coming off a year where he started all 16 games for the first time in his career.





A number of good moves for the Cowboys today that should put them in good position to take care of bigger business once the new league year begins.
