Patriots, Cowboys Host Rookie Minicamps for Undrafted QBs

Several NFL teams are using rookie minicamps as opportunities to evaluate undrafted and tryout players, particularly at the quarterback position. The Seattle Seahawks brought in former Washington Huskies quarterback Will Rogers as a camp arm to support their receiving corps and potentially earn a roster spot. The Dallas Cowboys invited Donovan Smith, a local undrafted quarterback from Houston and Texas Tech, to compete for a possible QB3 role. Meanwhile, the New England Patriots are hosting rookie minicamp with a mix of draft picks and undrafted free agents, including local Ivy League quarterback Jake Willcox and UC Davis running back Lan Larison, both aiming to impress coaches for a chance at training camp. These camps highlight teams’ efforts to find hidden talent among overlooked prospects, with undrafted players seeking to secure roles on NFL rosters.
