As expected, Dallas Cowboys defensive end Randy Gregory will return to the team.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones had hoped this would happen and now it’s happening — but there are conditions for Gregory to get back on the field.
Next Monday, he’ll be tested for COVID-19 in the Cowboys’ practice facility. If he’s negative and cleared, he can then participate in meetings.
Per the NFL’s official statement: “Gregory may report to the team on Monday, September 7 for testing and may participate in conditioning activities, individual workouts and meetings. He may begin practicing with the team the week of October 5. He will be eligible to participate in games following the team’s Week 6 game on October 19.”
Gregory, 27, is coming off his fourth suspension for violation of the NFL’s substances of abuse policy, and he has failed or missed at least six tests with the Cowboys. He has played in 28 games in five seasons with the Cowboys. In 2018, he played 14 games and recorded six sacks.
