Dallas Cowboys claim running back Emari Demarcado off waivers

The Dallas Cowboys added running back Emari Demarcado to their roster after he was waived. The move comes as the team looks to address depth behind Javonte Williams, following the departure of Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah. Demarcado arrives with previous experience under Cowboys offensive coordinator Klayton Adams, dating back to their time together in Arizona. Known for his speed and pass-catching ability, he is projected to compete for snaps as a third-down back. While Demarcado has shown the ability to generate chunk yardage, he has previously faced questions regarding ball security and consistency in his footwork. The team prioritized his experience in pass protection as they finalize their roster for the upcoming season.
