Cowboys Sign Sam Williams, Boost Defensive Line

0:00On March 10th, the Dallas Cowboys have signed defensive and Sam Williams to a one-year contract to bring him back to the team. Williams, who will be 27 years old at the start of the 2026 season, played all 17 games for Dallas last year, starting 5, and posting 37 tackles, 7 tackles for loss, and 1 sec. Earlier in his career, the Cowboys drafted Williams in the second round, 56th overall, back in 2022, out of all miss. He showed promise with 8.5 sacks and 15 tackles for loss over his first 32 games, but a torn ACL and MCL in the 2000. 24 training camps sidelined him for that entire season. Teammates and head coach Brian Schadenheimer raved about Williams' hunger and drive when he returned for the 2025 camp. He made key plays on special teams too, blocking a field goal against the Detroit Lions, and a pun versus the Arizona Cardinals that turned into a touchdown. This marks the second pass rush boost for Dallas on the first day of legal tampering.
