SAN ANTONIO (AP) - The Dallas Cowboys have signed a college track standout who hasn't played football since high school and a defensive lineman to supplement an injury-plagued position.
Teddy Williams has been a standout sprinter at Texas-San Antonio for the past four years. The 6-foot-3, 200-pound receiver last played football at John Tyler High School in Tyler, but he was on the practice field for the Cowboys' workout Thursday after signing a contract.
The Cowboys also signed defensive lineman Jimmy Saddler-McQueen from Texas A&M-Kingsville, whom Chicago Bears cut in the spring.
Cowboys defensive linemen Sean Lissemore (groin), Josh Brent (broken hand) and Jason Hatcher (elbow) missed practice with injuries.
