The crowded Cowboys defensive secondary has been thinned by one.

The team waived safety Sheldrick Redwine on Tuesday, as first reported by Nicole Hutchison of dallascowboys.com. The Cowboys confirmed the move Tuesday afternoon.

The 27-year-old is a former fourth-round draft pick, taken by Cleveland in 2019 out of Miami. After two seasons with the Browns, Redwine bounced around from the Jets to the Panthers to the Dolphins and finally the Colts before signing with Dallas in January 2023.

In that time, the 6-foot safety saw action in 36 games (playoffs included), recording one interception and 77 tackles. His only appearance for the Cowboys came on Thanksgiving Day last season, during a 45-10 blowout win over Washington.

Per Nick Harris of the team website, Redwine “had been battling a hamstring injury” during this summer’s training camp. He signed a futures contract with the club back in January, but was unable to carve out a role in a position group that includes Malik Hooker, Donovan Wilson, Markquese Bell, Juanyeh Thomas, Israel Mukuamu, Julius Wood, and Emany Johnson.

All clubs must get their 90-man rosters down to 53 by the end of business next Tuesday, Aug. 27. The latest roster projections from Cowboys Wire forecast four safeties making the final team, with one more being signed to the practice squad. Redwine was not on that list.

The Cowboys will return to Frisco this week after a long stay in Oxnard, Calif. and play their final preseason game this Saturday at AT&T Stadium against the visiting Chargers before concluding training camp.
