The Cowboys have picked up another SMU wideout on the undrafted free agent market.

NFL teams' organized team activities are beginning as the offseason stacks days, and the Dallas Cowboys haven't needed to look far for roster additions that can fight for a 53-man spot at training camp later on.

Earlier this offseason, Dallas added SMU wide receiver Jordan Hudson.

As the June 1 marker begins a pivotal roster-building period for teams across the league, the Cowboys have gone back to the Mustangs' wide receiver room for another roster acquisition.

As announced Monday, Dallas has signed SMU wideout Romello Binson, a 6-2 undrafted free agent who fills the spot of Parris Campbell after he was recently placed on the team's retirement list.

Binson spent two seasons at Miami before transferring to SMU in 2023. In his three years with the Ponies, Binson appeared in 32 games and made 84 receptions for 1,204 yards and five touchdowns.

According to the team website, Binson was originally planning on signing with the Miami Dolphins, but has now switched course and joined a competitive Cowboys room that includes All-Pros CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens.

SMU Mustangs Fighting for Roster Spot

Hudson and Binson have gone from fighting for targets with Kevin Jennings under center in University Park to now fighting to keep a job in a Dak Prescott-led offense in Frisco at The Star.

The Cowboys' receiving core includes speedster KaVontae Turpin and rising contributor Ryan Flournoy. Others are Jonathan Mingo, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Traeshon Holden, Tyler Johnson, Anthony Smith, and Camden Brown.

So, the newcomers slide into a loaded battle.

"Despite a lack of elite size or speed, Hudson is a physical wideout who holds his own in contested-catch situations," said Bleacher Report's Gary Davenport. "He also possesses plus hands. But like so many wide receivers entering the NFL, he needs to improve his route tree, and he can struggle to separate due to a lack of explosiveness and high-end speed.

"Hudson is going to be something of a project, but there are tools to work with."

For Binson, it's the long-range ability that is most enticing to scouts.

"Brinson is a field-stretcher, but the middle of his route tree is missing branches," said NFL.com's Lance Zierlein. "He’s a long-strider with good acceleration to build speed and create opportunities for himself on vertical routes. His route-running is less effective on intermediate routes, where he’s slower in and out of breaks. Despite his catch radius and hand size, he wins fewer 50/50 balls than he should when coverage closes him down. Brinson has traits to work with, but offers a more limited menu of services for teams."

Being that he went undrafted this spring, that makes him a bit of a project, too.

But an NFL opportunity comes of it, nonetheless, as Binson joins a familiar face in a familiar location this summer.
