Cowboys News: Brandon Carr returns and the latest injury news heading into week 1

Brandon Carr’s back, but is he here to play safety or cornerback?

One caveat behind the caveats is that Carr (or any practice squad player) can be activated due to a COVID-19 injury at their respective position and it won’t count toward the maximum two promotion limit, which is also key to note.

That’s not all, though.

As far as strategy goes, adding Carr to the practice squad keeps his cost to the team minimal, seeing as he’s not on an active player’s salary, and is expected to earn only $12,000 per week with no guaranteed money in 2020.
