Cowboys' Free Agency Splash: Defense Boost

0:00On March 2nd, the Dallas Cowboys missed the playoffs for the second straight year in 2025 and now they're gearing up for a busy free agency period. Owner Jerry Jones has hinted they'll spend more than ever before to turn things around, with big decisions ahead like extending kicker Brandon, Aubrey's contract. Jones' comments have sparked talk about potential moves to boost the defense. Experts point to edge rushers like Max Crosby from the Raiders, Trey Hendrickson or Jalen Phillips as top targets, especially since Crosby could be available in a trade that needs stems from last year's trade of star Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers which left a huge gap. The Cowboys' defense ended up near the bottom of the league, letting opposing quarterbacks put up big numbers despite a strong offense. With an 83-year-old owner, a 33-year-old quarterback starting the season and key stars still on the roster, there's real pressure. To act fast, the NFC East looks wide open right now.

1:01Free agency kicks off March 11th, so expect the Cowboys to make waves soon and shake up the division.
