IRVING, Texas – In addition to signing running back Robert Turbin, the Cowboys continued to fill out their 53-man roster Wednesday by activating rookie linebacker Mark Nzeocha from the Reserve/Non-Football Injury list and signing cornerback Deji Olatoye from their practice squad.
The Cowboys had a three-week window to add Nzeocha to the active roster after he began practicing Oct. 28. The seventh-round pick began the season continuing to rehab the knee injury he suffered in his final college season at Wyoming.
Olatoye, who has been on the practice squad the entire season, will take Corey White’s spot as the fifth cornerback.
