Emmitt's brother signed to Cowboys practice
squad
IRVING, Texas (AP) -- Emory Smith, younger brother of Dallas'
star running back Emmitt Smith, was signed to the Cowboys' practice
squad Wednesday.
Emory, also a running back, said being on a team with Emmitt
"is something I've been wanting to do since I've been playing
football. I just hope some day the Cowboys can activate me."
The Cowboys gave Emory a locker next to Emmitt's in the dressing
room.
"I'm very excited about this, I knew this is what Emory
wanted," Emmitt said. "That would be something if he
was activated and it would be Smith and Smith in the backfield.
He needs to learn the offense and there are still a lot of people
ahead of him. It's good insurance for the team."
Emory was cut by the Green Bay Packers during training camp
this summer.
