The Cowboys will release Carroll (concussion) on Wednesday, David Moore of The Dallas Morning News reports.
ANALYSIS
Dallas signed Carroll to a three-year, $10 million contract in March and earmarked him for a starting role, but he appeared in just two games before missing the last three contests with a concussion. In Carroll's absence, rookie Jourdan Lewis has stepped up to deliver quality play in a starting role and has generated 19 tackles, five pass deflections and an interception over four appearances. With Lewis in the fold and promising second-round rookie Chidobe Awuzie also healthy after having missed time with a hamstring injury, it appears there wouldn't have been a sizable role waiting for Carroll upon his return from the concussion. The Cowboys will still be the hook for the $4 million guaranteed in Carroll's contract as the veteran cornerback returns to the free-agent pool.

Previously a member of the Dolphins and Eagles, Carroll signed an affordable three-year deal with Dallas in the offseason and will provide some veteran savvy to a secondary that could include six players drafted in the last two years. Carroll has had some highlight-reel lapses in the past, but he plays hard and has defended double-digit passes three times in the last four seasons. He should provide an experienced bridge to the future for the Cowboys while their young DB talent develops.
Carroll is coming off a mysterious injury to his lower leg, but is reportedly healthy and positioned to be one of the Eagles' starting cornerbacks opposite free-agent acquisition Leodis McKelvin. He had to beat out Ron Brooks to get there, though, and Brooks will be waiting in the wings should Carroll struggle out of the gate. Nonetheless, assuming he holds onto the job, Carroll doesn't figure to suddenly garner fantasy relevance in his age-29 campaign.
Carroll will be expected to compete for the second starting cornerback position across from Byron Maxwell. He received the start in the team’s final game of the season in 2014 and seems in line to start the year as the second starter, at least for the first few games. He started 22 games with Miami in 2012 and 2013.
Carroll will likely make the Philadelphia roster and could push for a significant snap count at one of the outside corner positions.
Carroll is far from a shutdown corner but may go into training camp as the starter but could be backup by the time the season starts if Rishard Marshall and Brent Grimes can show they are recovered from their respective injuries.
Carroll will once again be the backup at RCB this season.
Carroll will backup Sean Smith at right cornerback, could see action in the nickel defense.
The Dolphins fifth-round pick in the 2010 draft will mainly be a special teams player this season. He will also provide the Dolphins with insurance at cornerback should they once again suffer a rash of injuries at the position.
