IRVING, Texas -- Jameill Showers is listed as a quarterback on the Dallas Cowboys' roster. Last year, that wasn't really the case even though he spent 16 weeks on the practice squad before a final-week call up to the active roster.
He spent a lot of his time playing special teams in practice. The only time he took snaps came when the Cowboys faced a mobile quarterback. One week he was Russell Wilson. Another he was Ryan Tannehill. Another he was Cam Newton. Then he was Tyrod Taylor.
