The Dallas Cowboys were busy revamping the wide receiver room this week, including parting ways with a veteran wide receiver. Following the trade for Pittsburgh Steelers star George Pickens, the Cowboys needed to make an additional roster move.<\/p>\n

To make room for Pickens, the Cowboys released receiver Seth Williams, who was selected in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft by the Denver Broncos.<\/p>\n

Williams signed to the Cowboys’ practice squad during the 2024 season and signed a reserve\/future contract with the team on January 6, 2025.<\/p>\n
