The NFL suspended edge rusher Al-Quadin Muhammad for six games for violating the league’s policy on performance enhancing substances. Muhammad, then a member of the Colts’ practice squad, missed the final five games of last season.
If Muhammad is to make the Cowboys roster, he will still be suspended for Week 1.
Muhammad, 29, signed with the Cowboys earlier this week.
He has not played a regular-season game since 2022 with the Bears.
Muhammad has 157 tackles, 12 sacks, four forced fumbles and a fumble recovery in his career.
EDITOR’S NOTE: A previous version of this story was posted based on information from the Cowboys’ website that said the NFL had lifted Muhammad’s suspension after he’d served five games last year. The story has been updated to reflect that the aforementioned information was incorrect.
