Prior the move, Garibay, who signed with the Cowboys on May 2 after going undrafted in April, had been the team's only kicker. Now the Texas Tech product is in line to compete with the 32-year-old Hajrullahu, a former CFL player, who has four regular-season games (all in 2021) worth of NFL experience.

Cowboys' Jonathan Garibay: Only kicker left with Dallas
Rotowire
Garibay is the only kicker on the Dallas roster during OTAs.
Garibay signed with the Cowboys on May 2 after going undrafted in April, and he's been left without any competition at kicker since Chris Naggar was cut May 13. He made all 15 of his field-goal attempts under 50 yards and went 55-for-57 on point-after attempts in his senior season at Texas Tech last fall. Dallas is still likely to add another kicker to compete with Garibay by the time training camp arrives, but the rookie is the current frontrunner for the job.
