Dallas cut Israel Mukuamu, a 25-year-old defensive back with safety and cornerback versatility and a notable special-teams impact. With four years of accrued NFL time, he bypasses waivers and can sign with any team immediately, leaving Dallas hoping to stash him on the practice squad for a potential recall later in the season. The 53-man deadline looms as the club trims to 53 and continues roster gymnastics to preserve depth in the defensive backfield.

Fantasy managers should monitor waiver wires and consider Mukuamu a long-shot, high-upside stash in deeper leagues. His path to a role would likely hinge on injuries or scheme fit elsewhere, while Dallas’ moves could ripple through the DB rotation and special-teams lean in the coming weeks.
