Cowboys Waive LB Will Smith & LB Justin Anderson, Sign G Cody Clay

The Dallas Cowboys waived LB Will Smith on Saturday, according to the NFL Transactions release.

  • Dallas also waived LB Justin Anderson from the injured reserve list with an injury settlement.
  • The Cowboys signed G Cody Clay to a contract as well.

This moves comes just a week after the team re-signed Smith to bolster their linebacker depth for training camp.

Smith, 24, was selected in the seventh-round of last yearโ€™s NFL Draft. However, he was waived at the start of the 2014 season, but later signed on to the teamโ€™s practice squad.

Dallas wound eventually sign him to a future/reserve contract, but would later cut him loose shortly after the draft.

Anderson, 24, originally signed on with the Giants as an undrafted free agent out of Louisiana-Lafayette back in 2014. He spent most of the year on and off of New Yorkโ€™s practice squad before signing a future/reserve deal with the Vikings this past March.

In 2014, Anderson appeared in two games, but didnโ€™t record a single statistic.
