Why UDFA John Stephens Jr. could steal one of the last tight end spots on the Cowboys 53-man roster

There must be something in the water that tight ends coach Lunda Wells is giving his guys because the Dallas Cowboys continue to have a knack for pulling quality tight ends out of a hat. It’s been an ongoing thing as late-round/no-round guys continue to emerge as reliable tight ends for this team.

Starting with turning fourth-round pick Dalton Schultz into a relevant pass catcher, the team is on a roll in replenishing good contributors with low-cost draft capital. Last year’s fourth-round pick Jake Ferguson had a solid rookie season and looks even better this year.
