Cowboys Pursue Multiple Linebacker Trades Ahead NFL Deadline

The Dallas Cowboys, struggling defensively this season and currently sitting at a 3-4-1 record, are actively exploring trade options to bolster their pass rush and linebacker positions ahead of the NFL trade deadline. They have shown interest in Tennessee Titans defenders Arden Key and Dre’Mont Jones, whose pass-rushing abilities could revitalize the Cowboys' defensive front after the departure of Micah Parsons. Additionally, the Cowboys have pursued Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Logan Wilson, a respected veteran who requested a trade and fills a critical need at linebacker, a position that has underperformed despite offseason acquisitions. Wilson, who has solid tackle numbers and leadership experience, is viewed as a valuable addition despite not being a Pro Bowler, and his contract situation makes him an attractive trade target. The Cowboys' defense has been a significant liability, allowing more points than they have scored, which has contributed to their mediocre season. With the trade deadline approaching shortly after their Week 9 game against the Arizona Cardinals, the team must act quickly if they hope to improve their defense and maintain playoff contention.
