Some help is on the way for Dallas’ beleaguered defense.
Dallas has opened defensive tackle Perrion Winfrey’s 21-day practice window as he returns from injured reserve.
Winfrey, 25, suffered a back injury in late August and was subsequently placed on injured reserve.
A Browns fourth-round pick in 2022, Winfrey appeared in 13 games for Cleveland as a rookie before the team cut him in 2023 after he was involved in a second off-field incident. He appeared in one game for the Jets in 20223 and has not played in a regular-season game since.
Though the Cowboys rank No. 2 in points and yards, they are also No. 31 in points allowed and yards allowed.
Dallas will face Arizona on Monday night before a Week 10 bye.
