NFL Rumors: Cowboys Elevate Ex-Patriots Defender Before Week 15 Vs. Bills

Carl Davis was released by the Patriots in August

The Dallas Cowboys reportedly are elevating veteran defensive tackle Carl Davis prior to their Week 15 game against the Buffalo Bills at Highmark Stadium.

The 31-year-old Davis has yet to play an NFL game this season. He was released by the New England Patriots in August, but New England reportedly had Davis in for a workout Nov. 6.

Following his initial release from the Patriots, Davis signed to the Seahawks practice squad in September before Seattle released him on Halloween. The 6-foot-5, 335-pound veteran then was signed to the Cowboys practice squad in mid-November.

Davis played three seasons for the Patriots, appearing in 17 games in 2021 and 16 games in 2022.
