The Dallas Cowboys are hunting for linebacker upgrades after rough season, and free agent Bobby Wagner is popping up as a prime target. The 35-year-old just finished with NFC East rivals, the Washington commanders, and could bring veteran smarts to Dallas as they gear up for. The 2026 NFL Draft. Earlier this week, talk show host Kate Adams floated the idea, pointing out how the Cowboys have chased inside linebackers before, without landing the right fit. Their defense needs that proven edge to bounce back from last year's seven wins, nine losses in one tie, which left them second in the division. Defensive coordinator candidate Matt Shottenheimer, who coached with Wagner in Seattle, is all in on the guy. He called Wagner a total stud, still playing at an elite level, praising his compete drive and that fun trash talk on the field. No deal is set yet, but with free agency heating up, Dallas might make a strong push.
