FRISCO, Texas (AP) — The Dallas Cowboys have signed kicker Tristan Vizcaino to the practice squad. The move adds an option in case Brett Maher’s wild-card meltdown lingers into practice this week. Maher missed his first four extra points in the 31-14 victory over Tampa Bay. He made the fifth to end a streak of five consecutive botched PATs going back to the regular-season finale against Washington. Vizcaino made two field goals and three PATs in one game with Arizona this season. He made just 10 of 15 PATs with the Los Angeles Chargers last season before he was demoted.
