Overview
- NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported that Maverick McIvor accepted rookie minicamp invites from both the Dallas Cowboys and the Chicago Bears.
- The Cowboys did not draft a quarterback and did not sign one in undrafted free agency, leaving McIvor as the expected lone passer at their rookie minicamp unless the team adds another.
- Dallas’ rookie minicamp is slated for one of the first two weekends in May, giving the staff a short window to evaluate the invitee on the field.
- McIvor started seven games at Western Kentucky last season and completed 67% of his passes for 2,062 yards with 12 touchdowns and six interceptions.
- His résumé spans Texas Tech, Abilene Christian, and Western Kentucky, including a 2024 season at Abilene Christian with 3,828 passing yards and 30 touchdowns, which offers teams an extensive body of tape for a tryout that can lead to a contract.
