The Cowboys have added tight end Mitch Van Vooren to their roster after he was released by the New England Patriots on August 18, according to Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. This move comes as the team is dealing with injuries to their backup tight ends, which include Brevyn Spann-Ford, Michael Trigg, and D.J. Rogers.
As a result, the Cowboys had only two healthy tight ends available for their most recent preseason game.
Van Vooren has yet to make an appearance in a regular-season NFL game, but he will have a chance to demonstrate his abilities in the Cowboys' final preseason matchup. No additional information regarding the team's intentions for Van Vooren has been disclosed.
