Sandro DeAngelis

Former St. Joe’s players and WNY Player of the Year Sandro DeAngelis had a workout Friday with the Dallas Cowboys.  DeAngelis, who kicks for the Calgary Stampeders of the CFL, worked out for the Dallas front office, including head coach Wade Phillips and owner/GM Jerry Jones.  The 28-year old native of Niagara Falls, Ontario is the CFL’s most accurate kicker.  He kicked in college at Nebraska after leaving St. Joe’swhere he was also a running back.  He is a former winner of the Connolly Cup.

Dallas struggled this past season with kickers Nick Folk and Shaun Suisham.  DeAngelis hit 42/49 field goals this past season, and his career FG percentage in the CFL is 84%.

The Cowboys are expected to decide next week whether to sign him to a contract.
