Biography

Undrafted in 2020.

PRO: After signing with Dallas as a rookie free agent following the 2020 NFL Draft, Terence Steele could have been considered a long shot to make the roster, but with a rash of injuries to the offensive line through training camp and the season, the Cibolo, Texas native not only earned a roster spot, but he also took on the starting right tackle job in place of La'el Collins (hip). Steele gained valuable NFL experience as a rookie, starting 14 of the 16 games he played, and will count on that as he makes a push in 2021 for a role on Dallas' offensive line that should return to full health.

TRANSACTION SUMMARY:

5/2/20: Signed with Dallas as an undrafted free agent.

2020:

Was one-of-three (Rico Dowdle and Sean McKeon) rookie free agents to make the roster out of training camp, and due to injuries along the line, played in all 16 games, starting 14 at right tackle.
Made his NFL debut at the LA Rams (9/13), starting in place of Collins (hip), becoming the first Cowboys rookie to start at right tackle in a season opener since Tyron Smith in 2011. Joined Charlie Granger (right tackle, 1961) as the only Cowboys undrafted free agents to start a season-opener as a rookie.
Also joined CeeDee Lamb and Trevon Diggs as starters to mark the first time Dallas had three rookies start a season opener since Antonio Bryant, Andre Gurode and Roy Williams in 2002.
Moved to a reserve role at Minnesota (11/22) and against Washington (11/26), yielding the starting slot to Zack Martin.
