Trigg's Fight for Cowboys Roster Spot

On May 1st, Cowboys' rookie minicam kicks off Friday in Frisco, Texas with 11 undrafted

free agents fighting for roster spots.

Leading the pack his Baylor tight-end Michael Trigg, who some scouts paid for a 5th or

6th round draft pick but slipped through the cracks, Trigg brings serious size to the

table, clocking in at 6.3 and 3.4 inches tall, 240 pounds, with the longest.

Wingspan among tight-ends at his class at the NFL Combine.

His pre-draft process lit up when Cowboys' tight-ends coach Lunda Wells work with him hands

on at Baylor's pro-day.

That personal touch from Wells fired Trigg up, calling it a huge blessing and highlighting

the coaches' real intent with players.

Now undrafted, he's got that classic chip on his shoulder, turning disappointment into

pure motivation.

Trigg's been grinding film on the Cowboys' offense, loving how coordinator Brian Shottenheimer

mixes in tight-ends like Jake Ferguson alongside Deck, Prescott and CD Lamb.

He sees his versatility blocking gaps and lining up anywhere as the perfect fit to add depth.

As many camp unfolds, Trigg's laser focused on proving he belongs, aiming to stick in

the league long-term and carve out his spot on Dallas's squad.
