Cowboys plan to retain DT Woods, WRs Wilson, Brown
The Dallas Cowboys are set to bring back defensive tackle Antwaun Woods and a pair of receivers lower on the depth chart in Cedrick Wilson and Noah BrownMARCH 16, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Re-signs with Dallas Brown (back) signed a one-year deal with the Cowboys on Monday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Impact The 25-year-old primarily played on special teams for Dallas in 2020, but he still set career highs with 14 receptions for 154 yards. Brown figures to fill a similar role for the Cowboys in 2021.

Officially out Brown (back) is officially listed as out after suffering a back injury during Sunday's game, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Impact Brown left Sunday's game after suffering a back injury. The wide receiver plays a depth role, recording 14 receptions for 154 yards this season. Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup will continue as the primary receivers while the Cowboys remain on the hunt for NFC East title.

One catch in Sunday's win Brown caught one of six targets for 13 yards and added four rushing yards on one carry in Sunday's win over the 49ers.
Impact With Amari Cooper being held in check by the Niners' secondary and Michael Gallup (hip) exiting the game late, Andy Dalton found himself looking for other options. The result was Brown's largest target volume of the season, but the extra looks didn't turn into much production. If Gallup is forced to miss more time, Brown could be elevated to the No. 3 receiver role Week 16 against the Eagles.

Held without catch against Bengals Brown was untargeted over eight offensive snaps during Sunday's 30-7 win against Cincinnati.
Impact Brown had only garnered 39 combined offensive snaps over his preceding three appearances coming into Week 14, but he attracted a target on over 15 percent of those plays. Last week he pulled in three of four targets for 40 yards despite fielding just 11 snaps in a loss to Baltimore. Brown's output in Cincinnati was more reflective of his low snap count, and he'll remain a depth option for Dallas' receiving corps Week 15 against the injury-depleted 49ers secondary.
DECEMBER 16, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Three grabs in Baltimore Brown caught three of four targets for 40 yards in Tuesday's loss to the Ravens.
Impact It was his best performance since Dak Prescott (ankle) got hurt, and the first time Brown hauled in multiple passes since Week 6. The Cowboys' receiving corps remains stacked -- even behind the team's big three of Amari Cooper, CeeDee Lamb and Michael Gallup, Brown isn't the clear No. 4 option ahead of Cedrick Wilson -- but as long as the defense keeps digging big holes for the passing game to climb out of, Brown could have occasionally productive outings.

Catches both targets Brown caught both of targets for 15 yards in Monday's 38-10 loss to the Cardinals.
Impact The depth wideout has done well in his limited opportunities, but he's still only seen 10 targets through six weeks. Cedrick Wilson appeared to injure his ribs in the third quarter, which could afford Brown a few more snaps if Wilson is unable to play next week. It'll still take a couple of injuries to the top of the Cowboys' depth chart for Brown to really become a fantasy factor.
OCTOBER 20, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Four grabs in loss Brown caught all four of his targets for 43 yards in Sunday's loss to the Browns.
Impact While the numbers were fairly modest, Brown set new career highs in receptions, yards and targets on a day when eight different Cowboys caught multiple passes from Dak Prescott. He remains low on the depth chart, but Dallas' No. 5 wideout could continue to find his way onto the box score if the team's defense remains one of the worst units in the NFL, forcing Prescott into shootouts on a weekly basis.

Makes two catches Sunday Brown caught both his targets for 28 yards in Sunday's comeback win over the Falcons.
Impact Both grabs came in the fourth quarter as the Cowboys mounted their improbable comeback, and while Brown's second reception went into the books as a 20-yard gain, it would have been much longer had his run after the catch not been wiped out by a penalty on CeeDee Lamb. Brown missed all of last season while recovering from knee surgery, but he's healthy now and is pushing Cedrick Wilson for the No. 4 spot on the Dallas depth chart at WR.

Back in action Brown (knee) has been a full participant during training camp, Jess Haynie of Inside the Star reports.
Impact Brown resided on the PUP list for much of last season after he underwent his second knee surgery. This news is obviously a positive sign for his chances to make the roster, as he appears locked in a battle for one of the final roster spots with Ventell Bryant at receiver. Since being selected by Dallas in the seventh round of the 2017 NFL Draft, Brown has suited up in 21 games, catching nine passes for 87 yards.
