Overview
- Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer reported Dallas placed exploratory calls to the Raiders on Maxx Crosby and to the Bengals on Trey Hendrickson and was told no in both cases.
- Jerry Jones has publicly said the Cowboys did not reach out to Las Vegas about Crosby and that any ideal addition would be a defensive player but not a pass rusher.
- Las Vegas owner Mark Davis reiterated Crosby is not available and Glazer said Crosby wants to stay with the Raiders, while a Bengals executive told FOX there is no way Hendrickson will be traded.
- ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler said Dallas is seeking an impact defensive player and is surveying the market across the front seven, leveraging extra draft capital from the Micah Parsons trade.
- With elite edge options effectively off the table, coverage has shifted to more attainable targets such as Bengals linebacker Logan Wilson and speculative packages proposed by media for secondary help.
