As the Cowboys assemble their 2026 practice squad, they're not limiting themselves just to their own training camp players who didn't quite make the 53-man roster.
On Monday, the team announced they will be signing three-year veteran offensive lineman and Super Bowl LVIII winner Wanya Morris to the scout team.

Morris, 25, was originally a third-round draft pick by the Chiefs back in 2023. The former Tennessee and Oklahoma product started four games as a rookie for Kansas City and got into another 11 contests en route to their Super Bowl win over the 49ers. The following season, he started 11 games and saw time in every regular-season tilt, even catching a pass for a touchdown along the way.
The Georgia native was relegated to backup duty to start the 2025 campaign but still found the field in 12 games, until a December knee injury cut his season short.
The Falcons traded for Morris in June, but he did not survive Sunday's roster cutdown and went unclaimed on waivers.
At 6-foot-6 and 307 pounds, Morris could be an insurance plan for the Cowboys at left tackle. Tyler Guyton is the current starter and has earned a public vote of confidence from Brian Schottenheimer, with the head coach even calling Guyton to tell him the team's trade for Steelers tackle Broderick Jones would not affect his status. Jones will reportedly compete with Terence Steele for the right tackle job, but that's not to say Morris couldn't eventually vie for time on the left side.

The Cowboys sent several offensive tackles packing over the weekend, with Nate Thomas being traded to Houston . Fellow tackles Sebastian Gutierrez , Marcellus Johnson , and Shiyazh Pete were among the players waived on Sunday.
Morris should bring a veteran presence to the practice squad and could prove to be someone the Cowboys would feel comfortable calling up to active duty if needed.
