The Dallas Cowboys are set to sign a former New Orleans Saints third-round running back to serve as the primary backup to starter Javonte Williams, according to a report from The Sporting News.
The move adds depth to Dallas' backfield behind Williams, who has handled the lead role for the Cowboys. The unnamed Saints draft pick was selected in the third round by New Orleans but did not secure a long-term role with the franchise.
Financial terms and contract length were not disclosed in the initial report. The signing comes as the Cowboys continue to shape their roster ahead of the 2026 season.
