The Dallas Cowboys have surprisingly released fullback Shaun Chapas, according to a league source.
Chapas is expected to draw action from fullback-needy teams on the waiver wire, per a source.
The 6-foot-2, 247-pounder was promoted to the active roster from the practice squad last year after Tony Fiametta got hurt and started his first NFL game against the Arizona Cardinals.

Avoid Jason Witten for week one
Jerry Jones informed us today that it is “not impossible” that Jason Witten suits up and plays against the Cowboys on Wednesday.
