The Dallas Cowboys have a long list of ex-players who have excel elsewhere after leaving Dallas. Some of the bigger names include former Jacksonville Jaguars wide recevier Jimmy Smith and current New England wide out Danny Amendola. Recently, there have been a couple infamous ex-Cowboys making significant contributions on other NFL roster after Dallas released them earlier this season. Those two former players being quarterback Brandon Weeden and running back Christine Michael.
Weeden was released by Dallas after failing to win a single game this season during his three starts under center as the primary back-up to injured starter Tony Romo.
