Blogging The Boys
Dallas could bring back some familiar faces.
Perhaps the biggest surprise player still on the market is edge Jadeveon Clowney. Clowney joined Dallas midseason and subsequently led the club in sacks with 8.5, as he caught fire down the stretch of the season. There’s certainly still a place in the league for the 33-year old mercenary, who may be choosing not to accept an offer before identifying where he can best be served in the pursuit of a playoff appearance.
In addition to these three, the following free agents ended the season on the Cowboys’ roster.
LB Logan Wilson (retired)
RB Miles Sanders
CB CJ Goodwin (retired)
OL Hakeem Adeniji
DT Perrion Winfrey
CB Corey Ballentine

Tyler Guyton & Eagles’ Lane Johnson Making Each Other Better
Guyton has been spending time this offseason with Philadelphia Eagles starting left tackle and future Hall of Famer Lane Johnson, along with several other Super Bowl champions, All-Pros, and Pro Bowlers.
Other linemen who have participated in the workouts are New England Patriots starting left tackle Will Campbell, Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive tackle Tristan Wirfs, a three-time All-Pro who has been selected to five consecutive Pro Bowls, Kansas City Chiefs superstar center Creed Humphrey, and five-time Pro Bowler Dion Dawkins of the Buffalo Bills.
With an open competition for the starting left tackle job, it is crucial for Guyton to take a leap forward for his third year in the league, especially as the perceived weak link on the offensive line. Dallas’ offense is also returning all 11 starters from the impressive 2025 campaign, so the team will be counting on Guyton or Thomas to protect Dak Prescott’s blindside so the unit can reach its maximum potential.
Guyton has appeared in 25 games with 21 starts across his first two seasons in the NFL, playing in 93 percent of snaps during the 10 games he appeared in last season. Let’s hope that the work he has put in this offseason pays off when the team kicks off training camp and the preseason in a matter of weeks.
There are no guarantees for Marist Luifau.
The Cowboys have added a total of eight linebackers over the offseason, highlighted by rookies Malachi Lawrence and Jaishawn Barham along with veteran acquisitions Rashan Gary, Dee Winters and Curtis Robinson.
At this point, the group is in shuffle as Parker tries to figure out who is best suited for playing which particular spot. But, what we do...
