Cowboys add RB Darius Jackson to mix behind Ezekiel Elliott, among other roster moves

The Dallas Cowboys made a few roster moves on Tuesday, coming to terms with running back Darius Jackson and linebacker Eric Pinkins.

To make room on the roster, the Cowboys released linebacker Ed Shockley and receiver Malik Earl, two undrafted rookie free agents.

Jackson was one of five players the Cowboys worked out on Tuesday.

Jackson is a former sixth-round pick of the Cowboys in 2016. He was waived on final cuts after an impressive preseason and training camp, as the Cowboys then chose to stick with their veteran running backs behind rookie top pick Ezekiel Elliott.
