NFL News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now! — Cowboys Eye NFL Draft's Trotter. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
On March 28th, the 2026 NFL Draft is just weeks away, and the Dallas Cowboys are already stacking visits with top prospects. One of the newest is Missouri Linebacker, Tossiah Trotter, a 6'2, 237lb beast who brings serious downhill power. After a strong transfer from West Virginia to Missouri, he racked up big tackle numbers and is projected as a day-to-pick around the 66th spot-on big boards. Trotter flasks at the combine with 27 bench press reps, showing off that raw strength. Scouts like him for fitting gaps and blitzing the backfield, though coverage needs work. Still, experts see him as a potential long-term starter who can disrupt plays with his heavy hands and quick acceleration. Cowboys fans might feel a twist of rivalry here, since Trotter comes from NFL Bloodlines tied to their biggest NFC East foe. His dead, Jeremiah Trotter, was a four-time pro-buller who spent eight years pounding it out with the Philadelphia Eagles plus Stinson
Washington and Tampa Bay. Meanwhile, his brother Jeremiah Jr. got drafted by the Eagles in 2024 out of Clemson, logging 57 tackles over two seasons. That family legacy adds extra spice if Dallas pulls the trigger. With the draft quack ticking, these pre-draft 30 visits signal the cowboys or hunting linebackers to bolster the defense. Keep an eye on Trotter, as they build for the long haul. That's the story for today. NFL News Today, driven by AI, I'm Corey with the story.
