Dallas Cowboys
The Dallas Cowboys shook the NFL world with their trade for New York Jets star DT Quinnen Williams just before the deadline on Tuesday.
In exchange for the three-time Pro Bowler, Dallas sent Mazi Smith, a 2026 second-round pick, and the better of their two 2027 first-rounders to New York.
The move signaled that the Cowboys are serious about rebuilding their once-feared defense, which has fallen apart over the past two seasons.
However, the fallout from that blockbuster deal (and the subsequent trade of cornerback Ahmad “Sauce” Gardner to the Colts) has caused unrest in the Jets’ locker room.

The Dallas Cowboys rewarded Donovan Ezeiruaku with his first career start on Monday night and the rookie did not disappoint. Shemar James started his fourth straight game and had a solid game as well.
The two rookies were some of the few bright spots during Dallas’ loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Monday night.
Ezeiruaku collected his second sack of the year and added three tackles, including one for a loss.
The second round pick back in April had his highest snap count at 51. That equated to 76.1% of the total defensive snaps.

It was reported on Thursday morning that Marshawn Kneeland tragically died at the age of 24.
As details unfolded in the aftermath, it was reported that Kneeland died by suicide as a result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
This is a horrific and unspeakable tragedy. Kneeland was just 24 years old. The Dallas Cowboys drafted him in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft. He recovered a blocked punt for a touchdown just this past Monday night for all the world to see. There is no way to convey how devastating this news is.

The Dallas Cowboys used their bye week to reset, refocus, and reload on defense.
After battling through inconsistency and injuries, Matt Eberflus finally has a chance to get his full complement of defensive talent on the field.
Four key reinforcements — DeMarvion Overshown, Shavon Revel Jr., Logan Wilson, and Quinnen Williams — are set to take the field for the stretch run. Each one fills a major hole that’s plagued this defense through the first half of the season.
Now in his second NFL season, Overshown looks poised to...

The Dallas Cowboys have announced that Marshawn Kneeland, their 24-year-old defensive end, died early this morning.
There is no way around the shock and sadness of this tragedy: Kneeland was one of the youngest players on the Dallas roster, and his energy, team-driven mentality, and promising future made him a bright light in the organization.
On Monday, the former second-round pick scored the first touchdown of his career on a blocked punt; it is unimaginable that just a few days later, he would pass away.
Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported that a spokesperson for the Plano Police...

Marshawn Kneeland tragically passed away on Thursday morning.
The Dallas Cowboys announced the news. He was 24 years old.
“It is with extreme sadness that the Dallas Cowboys share that Marshawn Kneeland tragically passed away this morning,” the Cowboys’ statement read. “Marshawn was a beloved teammate and member of our organization. Our thoughts and prayers regarding Marshawn are with his girlfriend Catalina and his family.”
The Cowboys selected Marshawn Kneeland in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft out of Western Michigan. He had taken on a larger role this season.
The Cowboys and Marshawn’s agent both released statements...

The 3-5-1 Dallas Cowboys won’t be back on the field until November 17th, yet another Monday Night Football game at the Las Vegas Raiders, but after this Monday’s loss at home to the Arizona Cardinals, the sense of positive anticipation for this game, or any of the much tougher ones that follow it, is woefully low. By dropping back-to-back games with hardly much competitiveness in either loss at the Broncos or versus the Cardinals, there’s no doubt the entire tenor of this 2025 Cowboys season has shifted quite dramatically over the last two weeks.
The organization was active on Tuesday’s...

The Dallas Cowboys found themselves active at the trade deadline on Tuesday afternoon, trading for Logan Wilson and Quinnen Williams, a player that they hope can not only get them back in track in 2025, but 2026 and 2027 as he is signed through both of those years.
So with Jerry Jones deciding to trade Micah Parsons and not pay him what he is making now in Green Bay, what does that mean for Williams, a player that Dallas will now have to pay, but it will be nearly 20M under what Parsons is making?

The Cowboys newest defensive star is ready to win after tough time in New York.
FRISCO — Losing can wear a man down. The constant defeats at home and on the road for a dysfunctional franchise can leave you looking for something new.
Quinnen Williams, a talented defensive tackle, had seen enough. It was clear he sought a new place of employment after playing seven seasons with the New York Jets.

The NFC East was a combined 0-3 in Week 9 with the Philadelphia Eagles enjoying their bye week. They got plenty of rest and even significantly added to their roster.
Not many teams can say they were the best team in their division during a week when they didn’t even play a single snap of football.
The sad thing is, neither the Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants, nor the Washington Commanders put up much of a fight this week.
Philadelphia now enjoys a three-game cushion over second-place Dallas. A win against the Packers on Monday and it becomes a 3.5-game...
