The Dallas Cowboys are adding depth at running back in the team’s first roster moves of the offseason. After signing a wave of eight players to Reserve/Future deals, the Cowboys announced three more additions. Dallas has also signed a pair of running backs in Snoop Conner and Malik Davis, as well as receiver Martavis Bryant.

The wideout already had a short stint on the team’s practice squad this season before the team opted to use the spot for a different player ahead of the NFL playoffs. Davis has been with Dallas over the last two seasons, predominantly on the practice squad.

Conner is perhaps the most noteworthy addition given he was not previously on the Dallas roster. Most recently, Conner played eight games for the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2022 posting 12 carries for 42 yards.

The Cowboys previously announced the signing of the following players to a Reserve contract: receiver Jalen Moreno-Cropper, wideout Racey McMath, tackle Earl Bostick, cornerback Josh Butler, tight end Princeton Fant, linebacker Buddy Johnson, pass rusher Durrell Johnson and defensive back Sheldrick Redwine.

The newest running back brings with him an impressive collegiate resume with a standout career at Ole Miss. Conner notched 130 carries for 647 yards and 13 touchdowns in 2021.

Heading into the 2022 NFL draft, NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein described Conner as “aggressive” and “rocked up.” Jacksonville selected Conner in the fifth round of the 2022 NFLdraft.

“Rocked up runner with aggressive disposition and relatively low mileage on his tires,” Zierlein noted in Conner’s pre-draft profile. “Conner is a scheme-versatile runner, which could help him as he transitions to the next level. He’s more than willing to choose violence on every snap but rarely allows that mindset to prevent him from seeking out less-trafficked pathways with his vision.

“He will run himself into some tackles because of his red-hot tempo, but ironically, he’s a patient and highly effective short-yardage back. Conner’s disappointing showing at the NFL Scouting Combine is hard to ignore, though, and could hurt his standing with evaluators. Conner has three-down talent and projects as a good committee back with the frame to carry a workload if needed.”
