Signs with Dallas

Dixon signed a contract with the Cowboys on Monday, his agent Jason Bernstein reports.

Analysis: Dixon was with the Cardinals' practice squad in 2019 before being limited by an abdominal injury in 2020. He'll hope to make Dallas' roster out of camp, but a practice squad spot is probably a more realistic goal given the Cowboys' receiving depth.
