Cowboys Have To Trim The Tree On Tuesday

On Tuesday the Dallas Cowboys will have to trim their roster from 80 to 75 players, according to NFL rules.

Compared to the final cut, there's relatively no drama, but still head coach Wade Phillips will have some decisions to make. Like whether or not to keep QB Jeff Terrell around for Thursday's game against the Minnesota Vikings even though, seeing as how the coaches would like to see all they can of Richard Bartel, he's not likely to play.

Will Marcus Dixon last a few more days, even though he's been out most of training camp with an injury?

The majority of the starters aren't likely to play on Thursday, so I'm sure that whoever Phillips keeps, he would like to see on the field at some point in the game.
