The source identifies Kuntz as a Stock Down player. The source notes 'Due to injuries the Cowboys only had two tight ends in this game in Zack Kuntz and Luke Schoonmaker.' Despite the opportunity created by injuries, 'he didn't exactly have a game that would make anybody change their mind.' The source concludes 'Maybe this is a practice squad situation,' indicating Kuntz's roster status is now in jeopardy and he was already 'on the outside looking in as far as roster discussion before this game even began.'
