Trigg is an interesting prospect, even though he wasn't drafted. The nearly 6-foot-4, 240-pound tight end is much more of a receiver, grabbing 50 of 85 targets at Baylor last year for 694 yards (13.9 yards per catch) and six touchdowns. He has the prototypical size and arms that matchup nightmares at tight end typically have, and he's physical and speedy, but he's raw as a route runner and had some issues with drops in 2025 and his behavior for multiple years. He'll try to carve out a role for the Cowboys this preseason, but it's likely he won't be a Fantasy asset for a while, especially as long as Dallas has several reliable targets in the passing game. He's at best a late-round dart throw in Dynasty leagues.

Trigg is trying to win a job behind Jake Ferguson, Brevyn Spann-Ford and Luke Schoonmaker at tight end.

Michael Trigg: Expected to land with Dallas
Rotowire
Trigg is slated to sign with the Cowboys as an undrafted free agent, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Trigg spent his final two collegiate seasons with Baylor and is coming off his best campaign, recording 50 catches for 694 yards and six touchdowns in 2025. Dallas features Jake Ferguson at tight end, and Brevyn Spann-Ford provides steady run blocking as Ferguson's backup, so Trigg may need to prove himself on the practice squad before getting a look on the active roster.
