No, he's not in the updated rosters from EA Sports and won't be unless he makes the Cowboys roster. He was like 5th string before the injury to Phillips and they signed Farr recently too at TE. I'd be surprised to see him make the team but he could be on the practice squad for sure.

Re: Missing players

The problems stem from the fact that all you can have on each team's roster is 55 players. Don't ask me why they can't incorporate the off-season roster to real-life specs with cut-downs and such. So you have to have backups at each position and that is probably one of the main reasons for missing players (to see who makes the teams). If they had the 85 men player rosters and practice squads (not sure if that's the correct # or not) just throwing out a figure. Then you could have all the players and preseason would actually mean something. Hopefully, next year they can get this right.

No not 4.2 literally.

And no, to you to. I was using 4.2 not as the actually speed, but in a sense he has a lot of speed. More of an exaggeration on my part, a little off but I should of made it more clear for you guys. No offense, that was on me.

Amen.

Without full 80 man rosters, the pre-season is pretty close to useless in my book. And IMO disc space is no longer a legitimate excuse.

No excuse whatsoever... NCAA has 70 man rosters, and 116? teams... Thats a heck of alot more players taking disk space then 85 man NFL rosters...I just really hope thats something they implement whenever they overhaul franchise.

70 man rosters that can be even higher in the offseason before cuts. And it's 120 teams this year I believe. Even if they allowed us 70 man rosters it would be a start. And they need to get rid of roster minimums. Some 3-4 teams only carry 2 NTs like the Browns, etc. But to have 80 man rosters in the off/pre-season with PUP lists and a proper IR system.. with 75 man cuts, then final 53 man cuts with practice squads... don't get me started on a waiver system. It is something I dream of among many things.. this game could be so great and rewarding.

yep I am so sick of the min of having to have 2 DTs. nothing worse then having to have another DT that isnt in the team wasting a roster spot when we are only allowed 2 extras for IRs
