Cowboys seek kicking upgrade through Kicking Karavan
The Dallas Cowboys launched the Kicking Karavan, a nationwide search for a new kicker to replace Danny Villanueva. Ben Agajanian led auditions across 29 states, culminating in 30 finalists in Dallas at the Cotton Bowl with a chance to earn a Cowboys training camp spot in Thousand Oaks. Villanueva is praised for key late-season kicks but deemed limited as a punter, leaving room for a blue-chip replacement to boost the next season.
