Daxon spent the 2024 season with the Dallas Cowboys’ practice squad. He participated with the team this preseason but wasn’t able to make the jump to the main roster. His fellow new practice squad member, Bartlett, played with the Cincinnati Bengals, New York Jets and Green Bay Packers. He failed to see the field with any of the teams, but his experience is a stellar addition to the Cardinals practice squad.
