Jerry Jones and Cowboys linked to star edge rusher before trade deadline
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones may have his eyes on an edge rusher for a trade.
The Dallas Cowboys are in a precarious position following their overtime defeat to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 8 of the NFL season, currently sitting at 3-5. Owner and General Manager Jerry Jones is known for making significant moves before the trade deadline, so speculation surrounding a potential deal has begun. According to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler and Dan Graziano, the Cowboys might be pursuing Cardinals star edge rusher Josh Sweat.
Sweat is currently in the second year of a four-year, $76 million contract, and his desire for a new deal or salary increase could pose a challenge for a trade. However, the Cowboys may still explore other star edge rushers before the November 10 NFL trade deadline.
