The Dallas Cowboys have signed tight end Mitch Van Vooren, as reported by Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Van Vooren's signing comes after he was waived by the New England Patriots on August 18.
The Cowboys are currently facing challenges with injuries to their backup tight ends, including Brevyn Spann-Ford, Michael Trigg, and D.J. Rogers. Due to these injuries, the team had only two healthy tight ends available during their last preseason game.
Van Vooren, who has not yet played in an NFL regular-season game, will have an opportunity to showcase his skills in the Cowboys' final preseason matchup. Further details regarding the team's plans for Van Vooren have not yet been provided.
