  "account": "The Dallas Cowboys finalized their 53-man roster on Sunday, with more adjustments likely before Week 1. A practice squad of 16 players is also being assembled, with the potential for a 17th player from the International Pathway Program. Only six squad members can have previous NFL experience. Each Tuesday, the league can \"protect\" four players from being signed elsewhere. During the season, the Cowboys can promote up to two practice squad players to the active roster, but only three times overall. Current practice squad additions include DE Dayo Odeleye, OL Wanya Morris, LB Justin Barron, RB Israel Abanikanda, DT Tommy Dunn, WR Jordan Hudson, OT Marcellus Johnson, DB Derion Kendrick, TE Michael Trigg, LB Isaiah Land, OL Nick Leverett, LB Curtis Robinson, DB Reddy Steward, and the potential return of TE Michael Trigg, WR Anthony Smith, DT Tommy Dunn, and LB Curtis Robinson. The Cowboys also lost S Julius Wood to the Dolphins and sent OL Trevor Keegan to the Vikings.",
