Dallas Cowboys Sign Undrafted Tight End Tyler Neville, Highlighting Inspiring Journey

The Dallas Cowboys did not select a wide receiver in the 2025 NFL Draft, instead expressing confidence in their current roster to support star CeeDee Lamb, with coaches highlighting KaVontae Turpin's potential expanded role as a pass catcher. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer praised Turpin’s development and hinted at new responsibilities for him in the offense, while the team is also relying on young receivers like Jalen Tolbert, Jalen Brooks, and Ryan Flournoy to step up. In addition to wide receiver discussions, the Cowboys signed undrafted tight end Tyler Neville, whose inspiring journey includes overcoming deafness and cancer before playing at Harvard and Virginia. Neville faces tough competition in a deep tight end group but brings resilience and determination to camp. The Cowboys also continue to build depth at quarterback, giving former Houston QB Donovan Smith a tryout at rookie minicamp. These offseason moves indicate Dallas is focused on internal development and giving unheralded players opportunities rather than making splashy acquisitions.
