The Dallas Cowboys have hit a rough point in their season.
They are currently sitting at a record of 3-4 after losing by six points to the San Francisco 49ers on the road last Sunday night.
Just recently, they also made a couple of roster moves.
According to insider Aaron Wilson, veteran cornerback Amani Oruwariye was placed on Injured Reserve, and All-Pro cornerback DaRon Bland was activated from Injured Reserve.

Losing a veteran such as Oruwariye after a loss isn’t exactly the medicine that this team needed.
He has three pass deflections, an interception, and 20 total tackles in four games played this season for Mike Zimmer’s defense.
However, the return of Bland could be a huge lift for this defense.
Last season, the former Fresno State star set the world on fire after recording a league-leading nine interceptions and an NFL record five pick-sixes.
He is one of the best secondary players in the league.
Now, the team is still waiting on the return of star edge-rusher Micah Parsons, who is working his way back from a high-ankle injury.
Dallas’s upcoming schedule does not get any easier from here.
They will be facing four teams over the next four weeks that are currently in playoff positioning.
Two of those games are divisional games and two of them are also road games.
Getting Bland back is key for Dallas considering how big of a playmaker he is.
However, this team is still a work in progress and is in desperate need of some wins.
