Muhammad was released by the Cowboys on Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Muhammad was brought in by the Cowboys in early August to add depth to the defensive line after Sam Williams suffered a season-ending ACL tear. While Muhammad has one game left on his six-game suspension from December for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing drugs, he'll likely be able to play with his new team right away if he signs after Week 1.

Al-Quadin Muhammad Latest News
Let go by Dallas
Muhammad was released by the Cowboys on Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Muhammad was brought in by the Cowboys in early August to add depth to the defensive line after Sam Williams suffered a season-ending ACL tear. While Muhammad has one game left on his six-game suspension from December for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing drugs, he'll likely be able to play with his new team right away if he signs after Week 1.
Will miss first game of season
Muhammad will be placed on the reserve-suspended list to begin the season as he finishes serving a six-game suspension handed down by the NFL last December, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports. The defensive end didn't actually suit up in any games last season, spending most of the year on the Colts' practice squad, but the suspension covered the last five games of their regular-season schedule and Indianapolis didn't advance to the playoffs. Muhammad should be able to provide some depth along the defensive front for Dallas beginning in Week 2, assuming he's still on the roster.
Finds new opportunity
Muhammad signed a contract with the Cowboys on Thursday, Josh Sanchez of SI.com reports. Muhammad was one of multiple players given a workout Thursday as Dallas looked to bolster their pass rush depth after Sam Williams tore his ACL on Saturday. The former last saw NFL action in 2022 with the Bears, when he recorded 29 combined tackles and a sack on 585 defensive snaps.
Working out with Dallas
The Cowboys are inviting Muhammad for a work out Thursday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports. Muhammad and other pass rushers -- including Carl Lawson -- are working out with the Cowboys after Sam Williams tore his ACL during Sunday's practice session. Muhammad began the 2023 season with the Colts' practice squad. He did not play a single snap after he was handed a six-game suspension Dec. 6 for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing drugs. Muhammad's last full season came with the Bears in 2022, when he recorded 29 tackles (15 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one forced fumble across 16 regular-season games.
