Dallas trimmed to 53 and instantly replenished depth by waiving two defensive backs, Trikweze Bridges and Reddy Steward, who land on the active roster as Dallas continues to fortify the back end for 2025. The club also shores up its WR group, bringing Traeshon Holden aboard as an UDFA and re-sigining Jalen Brooks to the practice squad, highlighting a mixed approach of upside and special-teams contribution.

Holden and Brooks give Dallas more receiving stock to develop behind the top targets, while Bridges and Steward provide flexibility at corner and safety. The bigger story remains the ongoing practice-squad churn, with coach Brian Schottenheimer weighing depth, special-teams impact, and development as the 53-man mix evolves toward Week 1.
