The Cowboys have signed spring football players for the third straight year, reportedly adding the UFL's Willie Harvey Jr. and Gareon Conley.
After the success of former USFL players Kavontae Turpin and Brandon Aubrey on the Cowboys' special teams, Dallas is dipping back into the spring football talent pool — this time to bolster its defense. The Cowboys have reportedly signed linebacker Willie Harvey Jr., who was named to the All-UFL team after leading the new league with 76 total tackles for the St. Louis Battlehawks in the recently concluded 2024 season.
UFL co-owner Dwayne Johnson has cited the ability to give football players cut from NFL rosters another chance at the professional level a major factor for his investment in spring football. With the reported signings of Harvey and Conley, the number of UFL players reportedly joining NFL rosters has risen to nine.
