| Arlington, TX (MySportsbook) - The Dallas Cowboys reached the 53-man roster limit Saturday by cutting a pair of kickers, while parting ways with veteran defensive end Igor Olshansky. Olshansky played the previous two seasons for Dallas after spending the first five years with the Chargers. He was a second-round pick for San Diego in the 2004 draft. David Buehler was left again as the starting kicker for the Cowboys after the team let go Shayne Graham and Dave Rayner. Graham, who was signed nearly two weeks |

| Irving, TX (MySportsbook) - In an effort to clear up some cap space, the Dallas Cowboys have released center Andre Gurode. Gurode's 2011 salary was about $5.5 million. Gurode was a late scratch Saturday night in Minnesota for the team's third preseason game. Owner and general manager Jerry Jones described the move as a "business decision." Phil Costa, who is recovering from a PCL strain in his right knee, will likely become the full-time starter. Dallas selected Gurode out of Colorado in the second round o |

The speedy receiver had two catches for 64 yards, including a 49-yard touchdown, against the Dallas Cowboys on Saturday night. More importantly, Berrian was targeted by McNabb four times in the first half of the exhibition game. That's more than Favre would look his way for entire games last season. Berrian says he feels much more in synch with McNabb |

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Jason Garrett has a healthy wish list for the Dallas Cowboys' final big test of the preseason Saturday night in Minnesota. He'd like to see Tony Romo string together several crisp drives, especially if they can feature running backs Tashard Choice and DeMarco Murray. Injuries have kept both out all preseason, and they're battling for the backup spot behind Felix Jones. Touchdowns would be great, but Garrett also would like to try a bunch of field goals to help sort through kicki |

| Irving, TX (MySportsbook) - Dallas Cowboys center Phil Costa is expected to miss 2-to-4 weeks after suffering a sprained posterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. Costa sustained the injury, which should not require surgery, during Wednesday's evening session, causing him to miss Thursday's practice. The setback means the Cowboys will have to look elsewhere for a backup to starting center Andre Gurode, who is himself recovering from arthroscopic knee surgery in July.
