The Dallas Cowboys have signed tight end Mitch Van Vooren following his release from the New England Patriots on August 18. This move comes as the Cowboys deal with injuries affecting their backup tight ends, which include Brevyn Spann-Ford, Michael Trigg, and D.J. Rogers. As a result, the team had just two healthy tight ends available for their most recent preseason game.
Van Vooren has yet to make an appearance in a regular-season NFL game, giving him a chance to demonstrate his abilities in the Cowboys' final preseason matchup. Details regarding the team's plans for him have not been disclosed.
