Jones Suggests Cowboys Have Finalized Trade
The Dallas Cowboys have reportedly finalized a trade ahead of the impending NFL deadline, according to team owner and general manager Jerry Jones.
Jones Hints at Cowboys Trade Activity
On Monday, Jerry Jones expressed confidence about the team’s trading activities during an appearance on “The Stephen A. Smith Show” on SiriusXM Radio. He stated, “We certainly have made a trade, and we may make a couple more trades before that deadline.” Jones went on to add that the team had already completed a deal, although details about the players involved remain undisclosed.
Upcoming Trade Deadline
The NFL trade deadline is set for Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET. The Cowboys recently completed Week 9 with a loss against the Arizona Cardinals, and this defeat has intensified discussions around improving the team’s defense, which has struggled significantly this season. Jones emphasized the need for enhancements, particularly in the defensive unit, which allowed more than 40 points in two games and over 400 yards in four separate outings.
Focus on Defense
- Dallas Cowboys are anticipated to be active in strengthening their defense.
- Jones indicated that the recent trade involved a defensive player.
- Improving the defense is seen as essential for the team’s competitiveness.
In another conversation with ESPN’s Scott Van Pelt ahead of “Monday Night Football,” Jones hinted at further moves, stating that the upcoming day would be busy for the Cowboys. He remarked, “This is the time when we have a chance to help the Cowboys. Anytime that I can do that, we burn the midnight oil.”
As the trade deadline approaches, all eyes will be on the Cowboys to see how they bolster their roster in response to their recent performance challenges.
