Overview

  • Jones told team reporter Tommy Yarrish the front office will speak with Clowney’s representatives right away.
  • Clowney stated after the Christmas Day game that he plans to play in 2026 and expressed a preference to stay in Dallas.
  • The 32-year-old appeared in 12 games with five starts, posting 35 tackles, 5.5 sacks, seven quarterback hits, a fumble recovery and three passes defended.
  • He is tied with James Houston for the team lead in sacks and holds a 76.6 Pro Football Focus grade, ranking 20th among edge rushers.
  • Dallas finished 30th in total defense entering Week 18, and with several edge contracts set to expire after one-year deals, retaining Clowney has become a near-term priority.
