Getting to know the special teams options for the Cowboys in the 2022 NFL Draft

Special teams players don’t often get much attention during draft season, but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist. In fact, there are at least 50 players eligible for this draft who play kicker, punter, or long snapper while other players will be drafted with the intent to play on special teams exclusively.

The Cowboys opted to re-sign punter Bryan Anger, coming off a Pro Bowl appearance, and long snapper Jake McQuaide. That means they’re probably set at those two positions, but you never know when an undrafted free agent can surprise. Kicker is the Cowboys’ biggest need in this area after cutting Greg Zuerlein.
