Cowboys Sign Valdes-Scantling for Receiver Depth

0:00It's April 27th. From kickoff to the final whistle, this is NFL News Today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. The Dallas Cowboys just beefed up their wire receiver group by signing veteran Marquez Valdez Scanling to a one-year deal, all while the drama around. George Pickens keeps swirling. Policero from NFL Network broke the news, and this comes as Pickens still has an inked his franchise tag after reports dropped on Monday. Valdez Scanling is 31 now, and last year he bounced between the San Francisco 49ers and Pittsburgh Steelers, pulling in 14, catches for 120 yards and one touchdown. His peak was back in 2020 with the Green Bay Packers, where he exploded for 690 yards and six scores, but this move ain't about replacing Pickens. It's straight depth for the Cowboys receiver room, giving them a seasoned hand to mix things up as they navigate that ongoing uncertainty.
