Cowboys Work Out Zamir White As They Evaluate Running Back Depth

The visit signals Dallas is testing a physical, downhill option to bolster immediate depth during mandatory minicamp.

Overview

  • The Cowboys hosted Zamir White for a workout while starting mandatory minicamp, ESPN insider Jeremy Fowler reported Tuesday.
  • White spent four seasons with the Raiders and produced modest totals overall, with a career-low 56 yards from scrimmage in 2025.
  • Dallas currently lists six running backs on the roster, so the workout is being treated as competition and insurance rather than a guaranteed signing.
  • Reports from multiple outlets describe the visit as an evaluation focused on White’s health, scheme fit and ability to provide a power, downhill running option.
  • Bringing in veteran free-agent backs for minicamp workouts is a common way to test short-term depth and could prompt a quick signing if injuries or roster needs emerge.
