As reported earlier in the comments section, (hat tip to Deke), the Cowboys cut Billy Cundiff and re-signed Shaun Suisham. The skinny:
The club released Billy Cundiff and replaced him with rookie Shaun Suisham, who served a two-game stint earlier in the season.
"We just had to do something," Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said. "He couldn't make them in practice, either. I think it's a little mental now."
Cundiff's bags were already packed when he showed up for work Monday morning and he described his release as "quick and easy."
The Cowboys also re-signed SS Tony Dixon to fill out the 53-man roster. I hope this doesn't say something about the injury to Roy Williams.
This appears to be the two possible playoff scenarios for Dallas to get in.
Easy scenario
- Dallas beats St. Louis
- Carolina loses or Washington loses
- Dallas beats St. Louis
- Carolina, Washington both win
- New York, Tampa Bay both lose
Apologies for the occasional site outages over the past day. Hopefully this will be fixed very soon.
