Cowboys add WR from practice squad

IRVING, Texas (AP) - The Dallas Cowboys today signed receiver
Mike Jefferson off their practice squad, giving them a potential
fourth receiver for their season opener.
Offensive lineman James Marten, a third-round pick in 2007, was
released to make room on the 53-man roster.
With Sam Hurd and Miles Austin both out, and Isaiah Stanback
expected to play despite having to wear a shoulder harness, that
left the Cowboys with Terrell Owens and Patrick Crayton as the only
healthy wideouts for the opener Sunday at Cleveland.
Neither Stanback or Jefferson have ever caught a pass in the
NFL.
