Cowboys Land Quinnen Williams, Logan Wilson After MNF Loss Highlights Defensive Woes

Dallas turns to deadline reinforcements to address a defense ranked near the bottom.

Overview

  • The 27-17 home loss to Arizona dropped Dallas to 3-5-1, with backup Jacoby Brissett totaling three touchdowns as the Cowboys head into a Week 10 bye.
  • Dallas completed two trade‑deadline additions on Tuesday, acquiring Jets Pro Bowl defensive tackle Quinnen Williams and Bengals linebacker Logan Wilson.
  • The Cowboys rank 31st in yards and points allowed this season, underscoring why one of the NFL’s top offenses hasn’t translated into wins.
  • Jerry Jones teased a move before the game, later saying there was no deal yet, as Troy Aikman argued on the ESPN broadcast that no single player would fix the unit.
  • Dak Prescott called every remaining game a must‑win and welcomed adding a high‑value piece, with Dallas set to integrate its new defenders before a difficult post‑bye stretch.
