Banged up in the secondary the Dallas Cowboys are not wasting time adding some help.
The club will sign veteran Frank Walker to a contract after he worked out for the team this morning, according to ESPN Dallas.
Cowboys coach Jason Garrett was a teammate of Walker’s with the New York Giants in 2003. Walker was released by the Tennessee Titans at the end of the summer.
He steps into a situation where help could be needed immediately. Mike Jenkins has a bruised shoulder and a hyperextended knee and Orlando Scandrick is suffering from a high ankle sprain that could have him on the sideline for a month. The Cowboys hope Terence Newman will return this week after sitting out the opener with a groin injury.
Dallas must make a corresponding roster move to create room for Walker.
