As the 2026 NFL draft has come to a close, the dash for undrafted free agents has begun as teams look to complete their rookie classes.
For the Dallas Cowboys, they are looking for 10 to 12 players to add in the undrafted market to go along with their seven picks.
The players will arrive next weekend for rookie minicamp, and the Cowboys will need extra players to help with the competitive setting with the fellow rookies to be there on a tryout basis. One of those players will have a special connection with the Cowboys.
Presbyterian running back Zach Switzer, the grandson of former Super Bowl-winning Cowboys head coach Barry Switzer, will be one of the tryout players at Cowboys rookie minicamp, according to a report from Aaron Wilson.
In three seasons at the FCS program, the 5-foot-11, 195-pound Switzer carried the ball 258 times for 1,330 yards and 12 touchdowns. In the receiving game, he added 64 receptions for 666 yards and six touchdowns. Prior to his time at Presbyterian, he was with the Memphis Tigers for two seasons, appearing in two games.
His grandfather, Barry, served as the second head coach for the Cowboys in the Jerry Jones era from 1994 to 1997. He was the head coach for Dallas’ last Super Bowl win in the 1995 season. Prior to his time in the NFL, he spent 16 seasons as the head coach and seven seasons as the offensive coordinator at Oklahoma, winning three national championships in 1974, 1975 and 1985.
The rookie will compete for a contract that would allow him to return to OTAs and mandatory minicamp in June.
