- The Dallas Cowboys acquired offensive lineman Broderick Jones from the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday to compete with Terence Steele for the starting right tackle position.

- With the season opener against the New York Giants 14 days away, the team has six practices remaining to integrate Jones into the offensive line rotation before the regular season begins.
