The Dallas Cowboys have finally signed a running back, but it may not be the kind of player fans have been hoping for after losing Tony Pollard. KPRC Houston’s Aaron Wilson reported that the Cowboys have agreed to terms with former Missouri Tigers running back Nathaniel Peat as an undrafted free agent. The news comes after the Cowboys passed on taking a running back with any of their 2024 NFL draft picks.
Peat posted 76 carries for 317 rushing yards and 3 touchdowns in 12 appearances for the Tigers in 2023. The running back spent his first three collegiate seasons at Stanford before transferring to Missouri for the final two years.
