In the aftermath of OTAs and minicamp being the first on-field work for the completely overhauled Dallas Cowboys coaching staff and a host of new players, the team continued to add to their roster on Wednesday with the addition of two new defenders. Ever since the draft, it has been apparent that the experienced Matt Eberflus, most recently the head coach for the Chicago Bears, has had his significant share of influence when it comes to rebuilding the defense Mike Zimmer left behind after just one mixed result season as DC.
The Cowboys targeted cornerback with their second-round pick in April’s draft, and passed on wide receiver entirely on day three, instead opting for a pair of defensive tackles in Jay Toia and Tommy Akingbesote.
