Cowboys Fill Their Practice Squad By Signing DE Chris McCain

The Dallas Cowboys have signed DE Chris McCain to their practice squad on Wednesday, according to Brandon George.

The Cowboys’ practice squad now consists of:

  1. TE Rico Gathers
  2. C Jake Brendel
  3. WR Andy Jones
  4. WR Vince Mayle
  5. TE Austin Taylor
  6. QB Jameill Showers 
  7. LB Jeremiah George
  8. DE Zach Moore
  9. T Keavon Milton
  10. DE Chris McCain

McCain, 24, wound up going undrafted out of California back in 2014. He’s managed to make the 53-man roster in each of his first two years in the NFL and is currently in the final year of his three-year, $1.53 million rookie contract and stands to make a base salary of $600,000 for the 2016 season.

McCain was traded to the Saints a few weeks ago, but was unfortunately waived as the team cut their roster down to 53 players last weekend.

In 2015, McCain appeared in eight games for the Dolphins and recorded two tackles, a sack and a forced fumble.
