The Dallas Cowboys have been the subject of immense speculation heading into Tuesday's trade deadline. While the team was able to pick up a win over the weekend against the Indianapolis Colts, it still wasn't exactly a victory that shut down concerns about the roster moving forward.
Now, the latest has been revealed on an addition the Cowboys are looking to make, but it's not one that will come on the trade market.
“Per sources, the Cowboys have RB Kendre Miller coming in for a visit today as they look for help after Tyler Goodson (knee) was hurt vs. the Colts. He was released last week by the Saints,” reported Todd Archer of The Athletic on X, formerly Twitter.
Archer also reported that Cowboys team owner Jerry Jones said on 105.3 The FAN that “the Cowboys will add a RB, most likely a free agent. Miller had 159 yards and two TDs on 57 carries for the Saints. Also had nine catches for 37 yards.”
Indeed, the Goodson injury opened up a gaping hole in the Cowboys' running back room, one that Miller could help fill for the foreseeable future. Still, Cowboys fans are likely hoping that the team makes more moves than that ahead of the trade deadline, which is set for Tuesday at 4:00 pm ET.
The Cowboys blew yet another double-digit lead on Sunday against the Colts, and although they were able to rally and win down the stretch, the defense still looked like a far cry from the Super Bowl expectations bestowed on Dallas by many entering this season.
In any case, the Cowboys will next hit the field on November 15 at home vs the San Francisco 49ers.
