The Dallas Cowboys made six roster moves on Saturday ahead of their Week 10 home game against the San Francisco 49ers, reflecting concerns about the team’s health and depth. The club placed running back Tyler Goodson on Reserve/Injured, meaning he is expected to miss at least four weeks with a knee injury, and waived outside linebacker Tyrus Wheat.
Dallas also activated defensive tackle Jonathan Bullard from Reserve/Injured-DFR and signed tight end James Mitchell from the practice squad to the active roster. Running back Israel Abanikanda and cornerback Derion Kendrick were elevated from the practice squad for Sunday’s game.
Wheat had returned to Dallas in March after playing for the Cowboys for two seasons following his arrival as an undrafted free agent in 2023. He appeared in five games this season, playing 21 defensive snaps and 83 on special teams.
Abanikanda is expected to take Goodson’s place as the No. 2 running back behind Javonte Williams. Mitchell could see playing time with Jake Ferguson out. Kendrick provides additional depth at cornerback as the Cowboys await clarity on the availability of DaRon Bland and Joey Porter Jr.; the team could be without both starting corners.
The 49ers-Cowboys game is scheduled to kick off at 4:25 p.m. ET at AT&T Stadium.
