Jake Ferguson added to NFC Pro Bowl roster – Nick Eatman, DallasCowboys.com

Dallas gets its sixth Pro Bowler of the 2025 season.

FRISCO, Texas – Tight end Jake Ferguson, who had career-highs in receptions and touchdowns in 2025, has been added to the NFC Pro Bowl roster as an alternate, replacing 49ers TE George Kittle.

The Cowboys are getting a sixth Pro Bowler to the NFC squad as tight end Jake Ferguson has been added to the roster as an alternate.

The NFL announced the news Wednesday morning, stating Ferguson will replace 49ers tight end George Kittle, who was injured in the postseason. The other NFC tight end is Arizona’s Trey McBride.

The five other Cowboys selection to the Pro Bowl this season were Dak Prescott, George Pickens, Tyler Smith, Quinnen Williams and Brandon Aubrey.

Ferguson earns his second career Pro Bowl selection after having his best statistical season in 2025. He becomes the fifth Cowboys tight end in franchise history to have multiple Pro Bowl selections, joining Jason Witten (11), Jay Novacek (5) and Billy Joe DuPree (3).

Five free agents the Cowboys should retain: Star receiver, ace kicker and more – Calvin Watkins, Dallas Morning News

The Cowboys will be active when it comes to bringing back their in-house free agents.

Jadeveon Clowney, DE: He was signed two weeks into the season and led the team with 8 1/2 sacks. He’s a valuable veteran who gained instant respect in the locker room for his work on and off the field. If he returns, he’ll be 33. What kind of value do you place on that for a player who should be a third-down specialist but emerged as a starter on a bad defense in 2025.

Javonte Williams, RB: He set career-highs in nearly every category for a running back: attempts (252), yards (1,201), rushing touchdowns (11) and yards from scrimmage (1,338). A two- or three-year deal is reasonable for Williams, and if Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah progress in Year 2, you might have a respectable running back room.

George Pickens, WR: The Pro Bowler set career highs with 93 catches for 1,429 yards and nine touchdowns. What was impressive was his 67.9% catch rate. Now his lateness to meetings, missing the team bus for a game and questions about effort are things you can’t ignore. But he’s with the right team that embraces all of his quirks.

Cowboys, Jerry Jones have one advantage in competitive defensive coordinator search – RJ Ochoa, Blogging The Boys

There’s no reason why the Cowboys can’t get the defensive coordinator that they want.

The Dallas Cowboys are the most valuable professional sports team in the world. They are worth an absurd amount of money. It is sometimes noted how that the Cowboys are shy about spending in free agency with regards to their overall worth, and that obviously is void of any kind of context as the...
