Cowboys Sign Kicker Tristan Vizcaino After Brett Maher’s Struggles

A day after team owner and general manager Jerry Jones offered a show of public support for embattled kicker Brett Maher and said the team would not look into other kickers, the Cowboys appear to be hedging their bets.

Dallas has signed kicker Tristan Vizcaino to its practice squad, adding depth to the position after Maher made a dubious bit of history against the Buccaneers on Monday by missing four consecutive extra-point attempts.

Jones had previously said that the team would not be looking to add any kickers, and expressed confidence in Maher’s ability.
