The Dallas Cowboys are losing some practice squad depth ahead of Week 11. And it happens to be at offensive line.
Player agency Elite Loyal Sports announced on Monday night that practice squad offensive tackle Geron Christian is signing to the Denver Broncos' 53-man roster. Christian had signed to the Cowboys early in August and was waived at roster cuts before being re-signed to the practice squad.
Per NFL rules, teams can poach players from other teams' practice squads, but only if they sign them to their 53-man roster. In other words, only if it's a "promotion" for the player. So while Dallas loses Christian, he will receive a better opportunity.
Congratulations to our very own Geron Christian (@geron_christian) on signing a contract with the Denver #Broncos!

Christian has yet to make his NFL debut but he was an important depth piece as he was the only tackle on the Cowboys' practice squad. Christian's departure means Dallas only has one lineman in its practice squad: Interior lineman Wesley French.
By leaving the Cowboys, Christian joins a Broncos team that is a shoe-in for the playoffs at 8-2. Per FTN, Denver has a 92% chance of making the playoffs and 51% chance of winning the AFC West, one of the toughest divisions in the league this season.
It remains to be seen if he'll have a gameday role in Denver or not.
The Broncos will be Christian's ninth NFL since being picked in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
