Hey, the Cowboys did a thing! Veteran running back Royce Freeman was added on Tuesday; a meager move compared to most but still not meaningless. What could this signing mean for Dallas’ running back position going forward, both as it relates to the 2024 NFL Draft and the upcoming season?
Freeman, who recently turned 28, has been in the league since 2018 after the Broncos made him a third-round pick. He started eight games as a rookie but none beyond that, and then failed to make the team in his fourth season. He’s since floated around the league the last three years in a backup role, spending time with the Panthers, Texans, and Rams.
