EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old spent the duration of the 2019 season on the Non-Football Injury List, and he's apparently still recovering from the unspecified issue. Tapper should return to the NFI list if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Tapper (undisclosed) was waived by the Jets with a non-football injury on Friday, per the NFL transaction page.

EDGE Analysis

So far, Tapper's only regular-season NFL action came in two games with the Cowboys in the 2017 season -- the Oklahoma product logged three total tackles and a sack over 36 defensive snaps. The 26-year-old signed with the Jets on Jan. 5, but now will have to look elsewhere to continue his professional career -- although the non-football injury makes that search a bit trickier.

Tapper (illness) made one tackle and forced and recovered a fumble in Thursday's preseason opener.

EDGE Analysis

Tapper skipped some early preseason action due to illness, but he appears to be out of the weeds and made a big play for the Cowboys in his first preseason action of the year. He remains in the mix for a reserve role on the defensive line after appearing in two games for Dallas last season.

Tapper didn't practice Thursday due to illness.

EDGE Analysis

Tapper's illness is unclear but it isn't expected to hinder him for long. He's looking to secure a depth role in 2018 but it's unclear if he'll secure a spot given the Cowboys' depth along the defensive line.

Tapper (concussion) is expected to participate in mandatory minicamp Tuesday, Rob Phillips of the Cowboys' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

It has been nearly two weeks since Tapper suffered the concussion during OTAs, but it looks like he has cleared protocol in time for the start of the team's mandatory minicamp. Given the seriousness of concussions and Tapper's injury history, the team will likely ease the defensive end back into the swing of things.

Tapper (foot) reported via his personal Twitter account that he's received medical clearance to return to the field.

EDGE Analysis

Tapper underwent surgery to repair a foot he fractured in Week 2. Although the Oklahoma product has played in just two out of a possible 32 games since being drafted in the fourth round of the 2016 draft, Tapper has shown promise when healthy and could be an integral part of the Cowboys' defensive line rotation in 2018.

Tapper (foot) has been given an updated timetable of 8-10 weeks, Brandon George of The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tapper was originally given a timetable for 10-12 weeks, but with the potential to now return a couple weeks sooner, the defensive end could could end up being activated off injured reserve later in the season. David Irving, who is returning from a four-game suspension, is expected to take on the roster spot left open by Tapper's absence.

Tapper will undergo surgery on his broken foot later this week and is expected to be out 10-12 weeks, The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

While this is yet another setback for the 2016 fourth-round pick, the timing is nearly perfect for the Cowboys, who can free up a roster spot for the returning David Irving (suspension) by placing Tapper on IR. The defensive end from Oklahoma still has the physical tools to make an impact at some point, but Tapper will have to wait until next season to try and prove he can stay healthy and contribute to the Dallas pass rush.

Tapper sustained a broken metatarsal in his foot during practice Wednesday, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis
