The Cowboys have scheduled a workout with free agent kicker Lirim Hajrullahu, Tom Pelissero of NFL Media reports.
The team needs a kicker to handle the field goals, extra points and kickoffs Saturday against the Texans.
Veteran kicker Greg Zuerlein remains on the active/physically unable to perform list after offseason back surgery.
Hajrullahu has remained a free agent since the Panthers cut him March 22.
The Panthers carried Hajrullahu on their practice squad for a few weeks last season until Dec. 14 when a work visa issue forced the team to cut him. The team re-signed him to a futures deal after the 2020 season.
Hajrullahu, 30, spent six seasons kicking in the Canadian Football League and was a two-time All-Star before signing with the Rams for training camp last summer. The Rams released him at the end of camp.
Hajrullahu was born in Kosovo before emigrating to Canada as a refugee.
