IAN 19 PETERS OUT The Dallas Cowboys continued to be excited about the prospect of safety Jayron Kearse on Sunday, but entering Thursday’s practice at The Star, the Jason Peters will no longer be coaching.
Kearse (knee) should be fine for this training camp (he’ll probably be out “limited” and for Sunday’s game in San Francisco. But Peters was out of the win against Tampa today Monday due to a hip problem, and smart bet. Dallas will use the offensive line that ended that game going forward…
So the 40-year-old Peters will sit, with junior Tyler Smith kicking out at left tackle and Connor McGovern starting at left guard.
IANI 16 LAMAR JACKSON PLAN? Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson’s expiring contract is a problem … and the complication has aggravated a knee injury that has forced him to miss the last six games … including a 24-17 loss at the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday.
As the season progresses, the Ravens are looking for answers on what to do with their franchise quarterback. Rumors on Twitter suggest that the Ravens will sign Jackson and then trade him.
Are the Atlanta Falcons “in front of the line?”
JAN 15 STILL ALIVE! The New York Giants advance to the Divisional Round after defeating the Minnesota Vikings 31-24 on Sunday at US Bank Stadium. … and so – including the schedule, of course – three NFC East teams still alive.
With the result in Minny, the Giants will now face the Philadelphia Eagles next week in the Divisional Round.
Meanwhile, the Dallas Cowboys are set to play Monday night against Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the fourth and final seed in the next round. … and the winner of the MNF game will advance to a matchup with the Niners next week.
JAN 14 NFL WILD CARD SATURDAY And that, Dallas Cowboys, is a tough act to follow!
The NFL’s preseason began on Saturday with a pair of comebacks.
After the San Francisco 49ers came back from behind at halftime to win by three goals (41-23 over Seattle), the Jacksonville Jaguars won a 27-point comeback (three-big in NFL history) to beat the Los Angeles Chargers at home.
The early lead in the first half came thanks to five Jaguars turnovers … including four interceptions by Trevor Lawrence. But … the Chargers found a way to overturn a four-point deficit to lose 31-30 at Jacksonville.
Lawrence recovered by throwing three touchdown passes in the second half to spark a comeback for Jacksonville.
See normal? Yes, this is the same Jags team that trailed Dallas by 17 points late in the regular season before rallying for a 40-34 OT win.
And of course the 49ers are the same team that beat Dallas last year in the first round of the playoffs.
The 49ers will host the NFC’s top seed, while the Jaguars await their opponent on Sunday. And with the Cowboys playing on Monday night, the prospect of a win in Tampa Bay certainly isn’t too far-fetched.
IAN 14 COWBOYS LEAD NFL “America’s Team” is done again.
According to Sunday Night Football, the Dallas Cowboys won the NFL in terms of home attendance with 841,192 total fans in nine games at AT&T Stadium in this year.
The next highest number was the New York Giants with 688,266.
It’s clear there’s a lot at play here: Loyalty and passion…a winning team (12-5 overall and 8-1 at home)…the third stadium of the NFL (MetLife Stadium and Lambeau Field only) – but a stadium in itself is a draw, even for fans of the other team.
But No. 1 is No. 1. … and Cowboys Nation is hoping all the excitement will travel to Tampa Bay for Monday night’s opener.
JAN 8: COWBOYS PLAYOFF FAVORITE The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who began their run to the division title with a Week 1 win in Dallas, now host a rematch on Wild Card Weekend … and the Cowboys opened as 3-point favorites.
The Buccaneers won the NFC South last week, and the events of Week 18 – showing how bad Dallas was in a 26-6 loss at Washington – locked the 12-5 Cowboys in the fifth is the top Wild Card team.
Times and dates for the first round of the playoffs will be announced late Sunday, but the Bucs will host Dallas at Raymond James Stadium this weekend.
And yes, CowboysSI.com will be there!
Cowboys manager Jerry Jones said of the loss in Washington and the prospect to come: “We’re going to be nervous all week. If that doesn’t get you ready to play in six or seven days, nothing else will.”
JAN 8 THOUGHTS VS. WEBB Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts will start Sunday’s regular season finale against the New York Giants; not surprisingly, shoulder pain or not, the Eagles must win to hold off the Cowboys’ surge.
And the Giants? It seems that someone explained something to first-year head coach Brian Daboll, who previously talked about “playing to win” even though the Giants (like Philly and Dallas) are He is arrested but there is no reason to be harmed. here.
So … New York will give the job to practice-squad quarterback Davis Webb.
The Eagles are 13-3 with two straight losses and need to win or tie with the Giants to get the top seed in the NFC and the first round. If the Eagles can’t lose, the 12-4 Cowboys can jump up and beat Washington today. they can also get the best team if the Cowboys (12-4) lose to the Commanders and the 49ers (12-4) lose to the Cardinals.
Webb, who was a third-round pick by the Giants in 2017 but has never attempted a pass in a regular NFL game.
JAN 6 JERRY IN LEAGUE VOTE ON AFC TITLE GAME NFL fans have voted to approve proposed changes to the AFC playoffs, which emphasize the possibility of an AFC Championship game, to according to reports from NFL Network Friday. …
As Dallas Cowboys manager Jerry Jones predicted it would happen as soon as today.
“We will vote to make accommodations for our situation because of the concern and the things we have to adjust because of Damar Hamlin’s injuries and it will be done and it should be finished by noon,” the Jones said on 105.3 The Fan.
Jones explained his opinion on how the league should balance the importance of home success with the factors affecting Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin.
“This is a tough time,” Jones said. “The home advantage comes from the way your team played during the year, all these important things – it doesn’t matter … right now. (It shouldn’t be) considered ( but not) confusing (compared to) Hamlin’s sensitive feelings.
The change in the AFC playoff plan comes after Hamlin suffered a heart attack in the first quarter of Monday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals, which led to the cancellation of the game.
Full details on the new game and the AFC match can be read here.
IAN 4 ‘NO CLUB’ Cowboys “Lion-backer” Mike Parsons has a serious injury to his hand, as previously reported by CowboysSI.som, and the fracture – along with what we know was a little swollen – that’s why he had to play in last week’s win against the Titans with a big package that we called a “club.”
Wednesday’s injury report is over, and Mike is not there … And he doesn’t think the injury will limit him on Sunday in Week 18 at the Commanders.
“We’re really going to go,” Parsons said. “No club.”
IAN 4 WASHINGTON COMMANDER BENCH WENTZ One week after quarterback Carson Wentz replaced Taylor Heinicke as the team’s starter, Washington has reportedly reversed course.
While Heinicke is expected to be the starter, the same report states that rookie Sam Howell will also get playing time, making his NFL debut in the final week of the regular season.
So far, the team has not confirmed it. .. and alas, the report is not very accurate.
Carson Wentz is sitting out (again) … as coach Ron Rivera says he has “no regrets” about the shocking decision to start Wentz in last week’s hopefully-killing loss to the Browns .
UPDATE: Howell now has the first team in the Washington game …
And Howell will be the starter Sunday.
The 7-8-1 Commanders might be wise to start practice with the rookie Howell, as there is little else that can be accomplished here against 12-4 Dallas, which is settled and still trying to win the NFC East.
IAN 3 NFL MOVE The on-field collapse of Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin rocked the sports world Monday night, when the 24-year-old suffered a heart attack in first quarter against the Cincinnati Bengals at Paycor Stadium.
Hamlin remains in critical condition in the ICU at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center.

DEC 28 ME TOO! Dez Bryant has retired from football, to become a family man and businessman, and has not played in the NFL since 2020.
But he’s definitely getting a little excited at the idea of another “retired” Dallas Cowboys trying to make a comeback.
According to a CowboysSI.com scoop, Hall of Famer Terrell Owens, 49, has called Jerry Jones’ office and asked for an audition.
“If T.O comes back … sign me to a practice team … seriously! LFG,” Bryant said.
Bryant, 34, is a Pro Bowl power forward with 7,459 receiving yards and 73 touchdowns in eight seasons with the Cowboys. Like Owens, he takes care of himself, and … Well, they’re funny ideas … but not cowboy ideas, if you get what we mean.
TES 26 WHITE ON WHITE Because we know you care…
We can report that this week you will see a “new” look with the Cowboys’ iconic uniform, the white “Color Rush” uniform with navy trim… with the white hat and star new …
All of this will be shown in this week 17 meeting with the Tennessee Titans on Thursday Night Football.
The new is fragile. But the masks have to jump!
DEC 24 SHUT UP AND PLAY This week, Cowboys captain Jayron Kearse strongly encouraged his locker room to shut up and play.
Kearse said ahead of the Eagles’ visit on Saturday: “We talked about a lot. Now, we don’t have to talk anymore. We should be about business. We must be about action. The image should speak. I really don’t think there’s more of a conversation that needs to be had than getting the job done.”
So far, Kearse is living up to that, with two things responsible for keeping Dallas in this game. The second …
It led to a TD from Michael Gallup, another guy who plays – or in this case, his toes – does his talking for him.
Dallas was tied 27-all with the Eagles entering the fourth here at AT&T Stadium.
DEC 21 The Cowboys and Eagles injury reports are in for Wednesday. With Mike Parsons and Jalen Hurts again showing the DNP.

DEC 20 DALLAS TO DALLAS The Eagles announced Tuesday that Dallas Goedert has been activated from IR. … Just in time to play against his infamous name, the Dallas Cowboys.
Goedert has been out since Week 10 with a shoulder injury, but came back on board for the 13-1 Eagles with 544 yards and three touchdowns on 43 catches in nine games. , a high point that fits well with A.J.’s response. Brown and DeVonta Smith.
It looks like Philly QB Jalen Hurts (shoulder) will be out for Saturday’s game at 10-4 Dallas.
DEC 18 KELVIN BENCHED The Cowboys suddenly have defensive problems.
For one, they pulled starting cornerback Kelvin Joseph after he gave up two touchdowns. … now Nahshon Wright enters the game.
Meanwhile, safety Donovan Wilson is hurt, as is Leighton Vander Esch.
Add it all up? Dallas was up 27-10, but Trevor Lawrence, using some of Dak Prescott’s stupidity, scored three TDs … and the Jags were up 31-27 with 10 minutes to go. remaining
TES 18 LVE HURT Cowboys linebacker Leighton Vander Esch has been sent to the locker room in Jacksonville and will not return to the game against the Jags.

The Falcons said Pees – who remained on the ground for a long time after the incident – was “alert and responsive” as he was taken to a local hospital for medical tests.
DEC 14 ‘HIT IT’ Jerry Jones wants it.
The Cowboys owner was asked by DFW media late Wednesday afternoon about the timing of signing Odell Beckham Jr.
“Not later,” he said.
“I don’t want to talk about that but stand up,” Jones said. But stop. Stand by.”
Jones, even though the Cowboys just signed another wide receiver in T.Y. Hilton, was asked Tuesday by 105.3 The Fan if the fact that OBJ can’t play today” (due to his alleged “ticking time bomb” knee) makes a trade legal.
“I wouldn’t go that far if you include the playoffs,” Jones said. “We wouldn’t be interested in Odell if he didn’t have the talent. I think it’s fair to say he’s a great receiver … he, as you know, wasn’t ready to play. He a receiver that I think is a good fit at any time. Will continue to like Odell.”
Also important (click above): The parties discussed contract conditions on Monday.

Steele is gone for the season. Hankins gets a chance to move during the game.
TES 14 OBJ SICK? Odell Beckham Jr. a “representative without compensation” … for the spring of 2023.
The Dallas Cowboys are still considering signing OBJ now, hoping he can make it to the NFL Playoffs – and possibly a contract offer that would secure his services for years to come. front, especially his “ticking time bomb” knee is good in his past.
In fact, it seems that the camp of the Cowboys and Beckham talked on Monday about the seals of a contract in Dallas. play anywhere this season is reduced.
But ESPN is now reporting that “many” NFL teams believe the 30-year-old is willing to wait until the offseason to make his deal.
“The managers of their teams have done their homework on Beckham to expect him to wait because, as someone said, ‘he will be the prize’ of the free-recruitment class,” ESPN wrote. “Beckham is not expected to be ready to play football until the game, and joining a new team and offense for the game comes with the risk of injury.”
The Cowboys know all this and have only bolstered their lobby with the signing of T.Y. Hilton.
Could the team have some rewards for throwing three-time Pro Bowler OBJ on the field in the playoffs? I guess. But OBJ’s financial reward could come if he can prove his knee is healthy… making him a “brand” next March.
TES 13 BEAS TO BILLS Are the Buffalo Bills in the process of setting up another receiver deal? A few happy tweets and reports have been spotted at the airport with the internet buzzing about former Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley returning to Orchard Park.

TUE 12 DOCTOR’S DAY In addition to Terence Steele’s bad year so far with a hamstring injury, defensive end Johnathan Hankins is dealing and a major setback from Sunday’s win over the Texans that coach Mike McCarthy suggested was “significant.”
The Cowboys believe Dorance Armstrong, who is wearing a protective boot after Sunday’s game, can play with a sore ankle this week in Jacksonville.
Losing Steele is a big deal, and now the Cowboys plan to shake up the O-line, possibly running both Josh Ball and undersized Jason Peters. to the right.
McCarthy said of Steele: “He’s a rock of a man.”
DEC 11 INJURY NOTES The Dallas Cowboys scored a last-minute 27-23 win over the Texans on Sunday, but lost on the road.
The biggest concern: starting right tackle Terence Steele left the game with a knee injury that the Cowboys said was they are “very worried,” and an MRI is coming up.
Also, Johnathan Hankins suffered a shoulder injury and Jake Ferguson suffered a head/neck injury.
Steele’s injury was the most difficult one, as the Cowboys first switched to junior Josh Ball and then turned to veteran Jason Peters at right tackle.
Next week in Jacksonville, Peters could be the right tackle with Tyron Smith returning to handle the left tackle job.
Also, Trevon Diggs left with a thumb injury – and now he is said to be playing through injuries to both thumbs. And Dorance Armstrong is wearing a protective boot after spraining her ankle.

“Just like we wrote up,” McVay said, adding, “I’m still like, ‘What’s going on right now?”
“I don’t know if you can write it better than that,” said Mayfield, who was fired by Carolina a few days ago and then put it in “Thursday Night Football” (with Matthew Stafford hurt) just a few games. c. “It’s a pretty damn good story, I’ll be honest with you.”
This is happening… finally!

The Cowboys are now making a habit of scoring 30-plus points. The Texans have not scored more than 17 points in their last six games. So … place your bets!
TES 4 JIMMY G CARTED OFF The 49ers say QB Jimmy Garoppolo is questionable to return to the game against the Dolphins due to an injury. Brock Purdy is now at QB. And yes…

TES 2 ANTONIO BROWN TROUBLE Antonio Brown sometimes brings up the idea of returning to the NFL, sometimes suggesting the Dallas Cowboys as his manager.
That won’t happen. Instead, Brown has real-life problems as he faces another lawsuit in the wake of a domestic dispute that led to a first-time custody order being issued. the NFL.
Brown, 34, is reportedly wanted by police on a battery charge stemming from an incident earlier this week that involved the mother of four of Brown’s six children at her home in south to Tampa.
On Thursday night, NBC News reported that Tampa police are still trying to arrest Brown after several attempts were made outside his home. The department told NBC that Brown “is not talking to police.”

The Associated Press has revealed that the former lock in the HQ area that was used by, and is in storage for, the free-agent wide receiver … is gone.

NOV 29 NOW, OBJ! Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told @1053thefan that the team is pursuing Odell Beckham Jr. almost an urgent matter.
“This year should be a big one,” Jones said. “We have six regular season games and practice, so in my mind, the whole show is ahead. We have to find a position where he can really contribute now.”
Well, let’s make sure to explain that clearly: Part of what Jones seems to be saying is that Dallas “needs” a healthy OBJ … and since it’s been almost a year since he’s rehabbed on his knee, there are lingering questions there.
But if those questions are answered next Monday when Beckham plans to visit the Star?
Jones also revealed that the OBJ airline incident had no effect on the star’s “full front” (in the words of coach Mike McCarthy).
“It’s very real,” Jones said in describing his phone call with Beckham. “He’s very competitive. Feels confident. Feels good about himself. We think he can be a good fit for us.”
Jones also said about the airport, “His judgment, his behavior is not a problem for him, the majority, he is not.”
So … if he passes the doctor and other obstacles (money, other offers) to deal with?
“We have to have it this year,” Jones said. “It’s very important. This year should be a big part.”
NOV 28 OBJ FLIGHT-LESS Odell Beckham Jr., earlier Sunday, tweeted about a notable experience without being specific,
“Fun hour,” he said about … something.
Maybe this is the STORY/VIDEO he’s talking about… Did the Police Just Remove OBJ from the Plane?
The Dallas Cowboys, one of the representatives of the free agent star, often argue that the name “diva” of OBJ is unfounded.
We’ll see what airport security has to say about that… the…
So, the flight crew thought he was sick because they couldn’t wake him up to fasten his seat belt. He refused to leave the plane when asked. … until the police arrived.
Oh, and by the way, no, according to the passenger and the video, this incident did not happen at DFW Airport, as some have speculated. The passengers were allegedly on a flight from Miami to Los Angeles and the “plane went down the runway and we (returned) back to the gate because of a problem” …
NOV 25 COMMUNICATION COMMUNICATION The Dallas Cowboys have been making headlines about free-agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. through his planned visit with them. Well, with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones announcing he had a “good visit” on Thanksgiving by phone with OBJ.

That’s the word from Josina Anderson of CBS Sports, who reported on Friday that Beckham has confirmed plans to visit three agents … and to do so in this order …
It is our understanding that the visit to Dallas is scheduled for Monday, December 5. So the Giants and Bills sessions appear to be imminent.
Anderson also reported that Beckham, who is recovering from a knee injury, is also in talks with the Kansas City Chiefs and the Baltimore Ravens. It is also believed that the San Francisco 49ers can argue for the services of the two-time All-Pro receiver, who is looking for a long-term “home” (and contract), and it is speculated that he may be questioned. for a $20 million APY.

The Giants don’t seem to have announced a date yet, but it’s on Beckham’s wish list. Bills, Niners and Chiefs can also be found here … although those organizations are not as loud about everything as the Cowboys’ team Jerry Jones and his franchise.
Beckham is said to be healthy after knee surgery and is reportedly seeking a long-term deal at around $20 million APY, all part of his quest, as he put it, for a “house.”
And in DFW? The home inspection is for December 5th.
NOV 23 TP WINS AWARD There’s no disputing this: Tony Pollard has become the most feared weapon in the Cowboys offense, and this week it’s official. He was named the NFC Offensive Player of the Week after his impressive performance in Dallas’ 40-3 win over Minnesota.
TP number? He had a career-high 189 scrimmage yards (109 receiving, 80 rushing) and two TDs on Sunday.
Our friend at PFF, Marcus Mosher, wrote: “Tony Pollard’s breakout season is upon us. Dallas suddenly has one of the NFL’s most dangerous offenses, one that feeding a player who is probably the best in the league right now.”
In the past four games, the Cowboys have scored 141 points per game and averaged 412.8 yards of offense. That’s better than they were last year when they were the NFL’s No. 1 offense.
Something to do with the return of Dak Prescott, of course. But as the Cowboys prepare to host the Giants on Thanksgiving Day in a battle of two 7-3 NFC East teams? Yes, it has a lot to do with Tony Pollard too.

This comes in the wake of news of a class action lawsuit being filed by Curry and Brady and other celebrities and claiming, among others, “either control, promotion, assistance in, and actively participate” in the process they are accused of “marketing unfairly” FTX – which the filing describes as a “real house of cards” and “a Ponzi scheme.”
NOV 21 RUSSELL WILSON ONION HERSCHEL After the dust settled and all the onion skins fell off, the NFL world came to a general consensus: There will never be another one. trades like the Herschel Walker deal, cleverly executed by the Cowboys became the foundation of a three-time Super Bowl champion.
Did it “never happen again” in Seattle?
The 1989 Walker trade — widely viewed as the greatest heist in football history — gave the Cowboys the Vikings the most prize money for the star. to go back. Among the players selected with the option received from Minnesota: Emmitt Smith, Russell Maryland, Darren Woodson and Kevin Smith.
But now? The Denver Broncos, like the Vikings, thought they had “one star.” The Seahawks wanted quarterback Russell Wilson for two first-round, two-round picks. , and three veteran players.
How are the Broncos looking? Wilson, as our guy (and former Seahawks guard) Corbin K. Smith wrote, is “playing the worst football of his career in the Mile High City, because he’s less than 60.” percentage of his passes and throws down just seven passes. 10 starts as Denver has fallen to a disappointing 3-7 record and currently sits in last place in the AFC West.”
How about Seattle rereading Geno Smith at QB? He is, Smith said, “an MVP candidate leading a 6-4, NFC West-leading team.”
And every guy and every decision doesn’t count and … Well, dig deep into Corbin’s vision of how “The Herschel Heist” never happens again … except maybe it just does. .
NOV 20 TP NO. 1? Tony Pollard important. Ezekiel Elliott is important. And as Dallas prepares for today’s Cowboys at Vikings showdown, there’s a constant insistence that all running backs are important, with an eternal nod to the idea that “When Zeke goes, so does Zeke.” Cowboys.”
But NFL Network suggests a new wrinkle for Week 11, the idea that Zeke — “light years ahead” of what he was after missing two games with his knee — will “return” to the line, and Pollard. “to get more contact,” apparently, than Elliott’s knee.
Our gentle advice: Sports games, at least as much as any first idea of the game, will be the thing that determines who does what.
NOV 18 INJURY TO TANK Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy said Friday morning that DeMarcus Lawrence (foot, knee) will be limited in action today per The Star.
But, he added, “I have every hope for him to play” in Sunday’s game against the Vikings.
Lawrence, who has a history of playing through serious injuries, is ready to do it again.
“The right knee hurts more than the legs,” he said. “I’m dealing with a lot right now. Just trying to focus on the job at hand.”
But … do you play on Sunday?
Ezekiel Elliott (knee) and Anthony Barr are also on track to return to action this weekend.
McCarthy to Zeke: “I hope he goes.”
McCarthy on Barr: “He’s on track to play Sunday.”
NOV 17 GUYS NEW GUYS AT WORK The Cowboys added two “name” players to their roster via the practice squad, and Thursday’s new team – defensive end Takk McKinley and receiver Antonio Callaway – won on the field here at The Star.
Callaway, a former Browns starter, wears No. 14.
Takk, a first-round pick with the Falcons, is No. 59.
NOV 16 Chicago Wants Taco The Chicago Bears have signed Taco Charlton off the New Orleans Saints’ practice squad.
The ex-Cowboy, a first round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft taken by Dallas, played two seasons before being cut. Charlton’s time with the Cowboys was disappointing, with just four sacks in 27 games.
His new deal with the Bears reunites him with current coach Matt Eberflus, who was the former linebackers coach for the Cowboys when Charlton was drafted.
NOV 16 TAKK IN The Dallas Cowboys have made another move. The Cowboys have signed defensive end Takk McKinley to the practice squad after hosting him for a summer workout.
McKinley was a first-round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft taken by the Atlanta Falcons under head coach Dan Quinn. McKinley played four seasons in Atlanta before playing his final two with the Browns and Rams.
This move comes on the heels of Tuesday’s signing of another “name” player looking for a renaissance as former Browns wideout starter Antonio Callaway has joined the club via scouting team. .
NOV 15 CENTER TRYOUTS The Cowboys have moved starting UDFA center Alex Lindstrom to (practice-squad) IR and are now in need of help there, CowboysSI.com reports, with three prospects available these tests in The Star.
Beau Benzschawel played for Wisconsin and was undrafted in 2019.
Brock Hoffman is a freshman UDFA from Virginia Tech.
Michal Menet was selected by Arizona in the seventh round of the 2021 NFL Draft out of Penn State.
Dallas center Tyler Biadasz continues, and Lindstrom has worked as a contributor.
NOV 15 ROCK-BOTTOM RAMS The Los Angeles Rams will be without their top offensive tackle for at least four weeks after placing star wide receiver Cooper Kupp on injured reserve, it was announced. Rams running back Sean McVay.
Kupp was injured during the Rams’ loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday with a high ankle sprain he suffered late in the game.
Kupp will miss at least four weeks and will undergo hamstring surgery to repair the injury. Recovery from band surgery usually takes five to six weeks, according to reports.
McVay did not rule out Kupp for the season.
Kupp is the Rams’ all-time leading scorer, and currently sits second in the NFL in receptions (75), fifth in targets (98 ), fifth in yards (812) and fifth in touchdowns (6).
Read more about “the rock under the Rams” as they slip out of contention in an NFC where the 6-3 Dallas Cowboys are trying to make progress here.
NOV 13 DALLAS TIED 7-ALL Cowboys at Packers was mostly Dallas’ ability to get close to the goal line … but also by one goal in the first quarter and half.
CeeDee Lamb has a TD catch from QB Dak Prescott as the receiver comes out of the backfield … but on a turnover for Dallas to go up 14-0, Prescott throws an interception .
And with 4:54 left in the first half at Lambeau Field, Aaron Rodgers responded with a deep TD pass to rookie Christian Watson to tie the score at 7-all.
NOV 12 COWBOY AND TILLERS? The Los Angeles Chargers are already waiving former defensive tackle Jerry Tillery — and the Dallas Cowboys, who are still looking to shore up a good defense (although there are some offensive challenges as they prepare for Sunday’s Green Bay) wants a piece of the action.
But there is a problem – a problem of being too good.
The 6-6, 295-pound Tillery fell out of favor with the Chargers’ coaching staff this year as he caught just eight carries before being cut Friday. So the 2019 NFL Draft first-round pick will get a fresh start somewhere…
But the way the suspension order works, the worst teams get claims first. And Dallas – with his 6-2 record – will go to the bottom of the teams with a shot at him.
That process could start as early as next week, and teams like the one-win Texans seem to be the most likely to win here.
Ranked 28th in 2019, Tillery, 26, was in his fourth year with the Chargers after starting 29 of 54 games played, with 106 tackles and 10.5 sacks.
NOV 2 TRYOUT SCOOP The Cowboys on Wednesday played 10 games at The Star in Frisco and we’ve got the list…
Scoop: #Cowboys BIG F game at The Star…
More information as we collect it. …
NOV 1 RIDLEY SAYS … BREAKING?! The strange story of Calvin Ridley continues to haunt.
The Jacksonville Jaguars, needing a lot of diversity, about a year ago explored the idea of trading for the disappointment of the Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley.
But a few problems arose.
First, the talented actor left Atlanta citing mental health reasons; he seemed to be considering retirement.
Then, the Falcons considered trading him to the Eagles – but they willingly pulled out of the trade because the Falcons knew Ridley would get a four One-year suspension for betting on NFL games.
The Falcons did that with integrity. And now they’ve done something else: He’s been traded to the longtime favorite Jags in what NFL Network called “difficult” negotiations that ultimately Atlanta gets second and the fifth round.
NOV 1 WR DEAL Put this one in the “Do Something” category that doesn’t make much sense – or, at least, doesn’t make sense for Dallas.
The Bears just traded a second round pick for a receiver in Chase Claypool who has some production (including just one TD catch this year and no caught two touchdown passes for the Steelers last week) but was high on Dallas’ radar…
But no. Not for a second choice. … which may end up being too expensive for Dallas to consider talks with Brandin Cooks, a more proven player than Claypool.
NOV 1 CHUBB TO MIAMI Bradley Chubb has been traded to the AFC East as the Dolphins re-enter their Buffalo Bills’ Arms Race. Full story here.
NOV 1 TJ TO MINNY TJ Hockenson is about to see more of the Cowboys. His Lions just played in Dallas … and now, later this month, his Vikings – as they just sold out there – will see the Cowboys again. Full story here.
NOV 1 DE COST Cowboys continue to be linked to trade rumors (see Bradley Chubb) … not that we’ve seen perfect in proportion.
Just in case, knowing the weather is in order.
We know because the Los Angeles Rams offer for Panthers edge Brian Burns is, by the way. Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated, including two first-round picks.
The Panthers apparently rejected the Rams’ offers of those first two because they’re coming in 2024 and 2025; that’s all the Rams are.
But it could also show how much Carolina doesn’t want to lose their goaltender.
And that might indicate that Dallas can’t travel this way.
NOV 1 JOKER Kareem Hunt had just thrown in Cleveland’s 32-13 win over Cincinnati on “Monday Night Football” and it was Halloween. So he was feeling pretty good on his way.
“I mean, I’m not happy for anything, man,” Hunt said, per NFL.com. “I’m a football player and this is a business, so I’m ready to do whatever they choose from me.”
“Either going somewhere else or here, whatever doesn’t matter. I love the game of football,” said Hunt, who should also be happy to be “The Joker” in Halloween, since he did his postgame interview in his Batman-themed mask.
OCT 31 LOOKING IN THE NFC EAST? The Philadelphia Eagles, according to multiple reports, are interested in Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt. The Browns are tipped to chase down the NFL’s rushing champion and their defensive run may only be in the fourth round, and Hunt is will work in Philly on behalf of Miles Sanders.
NFL insider Jay Glazer noted that he could see the Eagles trading for a returner, which adds credence — if not explanation — to the story. Assuming part of the reason Hunt is unhappy in Cleveland is because he was Nick Chubb’s starting caddy … why is he interested in being a Sanders supporter?
Say this about Philly, though: at 7-0, the roster they’re building is the product of many, many right moves.
OCT 31 ‘DAMAGED’ ROQUAN TRADED The Chicago Bears lost 49-29 to the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, a feat that star tight end Roquan Smith found “shameful.”
And now Smith has been traded to the Baltimore Ravens. … and in making that jump from a 3-5 NFC loss to a 5-3 AFC win.
The Bears are reportedly getting a second-rounder and a fifth-rounder because the Ravens will be working on a long-term extension for the young talent.
OCT 31 BRANDIN COOKS TIES In our two recent conversations with Texans sources, the organization continues to downplay the idea of trading Brandin Cooks.
And there are prohibitive reasons for him, such as 1) we believe Houston will ask for a second-round buyout and 2) he is locked in at $18 million for 2023.
But will he help Dallas or another rival team? No doubt, the “take-the-top-off” vet succeeded in Houston (in seven starts this year the 29-year-old had 32 catches for 354 yards and one touchdown) despite the soft QB play.
He’s a 1,000-yard guy whose name is now popping up in two media outlets, in Dallas and New York. Are the Cowboys really willing to spend what it takes here?
OCT 31 STEPHEN JONES THOUGHTS ON OBJ? Despite Jerry Jones’ “crazy” and “dangerous” thoughts, COO Stephen Jones said the Cowboys are “good” out there.
But Stephen added: “And there are some non-human boys out there.”
Stephen’s quote, and our “who’s who” list, are here.
OCTOBER 31 DANCING DAY? The Dallas Cowboys and the rest of the NFL face trade Tuesday afternoon … and CowboysSI.com’s one-on-one with Jerry Jones leaves our Mike Fisher and believe that Jerry is “The Itch.”
Writing Fish: “Jerry Jones” gets the itch.”
“My 32 years of chronicling the Jones era in Dallas doesn’t come with any guarantees about what the Cowboys will do between now and Tuesday. . The “who”? The “what”? The public announcement to publish”?
“Those dances cannot be danced alone; Jerry – and Stephen Jones and Will McClay, most directly involved – need willing partners.
“But here’s what I can say, after a few games in a lot of media coverage and then a happy elevator ride on the way to Jones’ AT&T Stadium suite:
“Jerry Jones wants to have an opportunity where he can use his faith in his “guts and guts and guts and willingness to go out there and take that risk.”
OCT 31 NAMED IN NEW ENGLAND Amid multiple reports of the Patriots calling up multiple players, names like right tackle Isaiah Wynn, running back Damien Harris and safety Jabril Peppers has been mentioned in the latest news surrounding the Patriots. It has also been reported that New England recently received inquiries from all of the Pats vets, including Jakobi Meyers, DeVante Parker, Nelson Agholor and Kendrick Bourne.
OCT 31: 10 NAMES Sunday was a big news release day, with plenty of Buffalo Bill news. The Buffalo News made a top-10 list, and here are our answers related to the Bills and beyond…
1) Rams running back Cam Akers. Resources in L.A. we are told that the two groups have “made” each other. Problem: Akers doesn’t seem to run with much “juice,” making him less of a threat than the top running back on Buffalo’s roster.
2) Texans receiver Brandin Cooks. Cooks is a take-the-top-off weapon, but the Texans, for a source, only listen when given a second choice. That, and Cooks’ 2023 salary of $18 million is a non-starter.
3) Panthers guard Austin Corbett. He has a tie with the Bills’ coaching staff and the Panthers are on fire. (Even though they say they aren’t.)
4) Panthers linebacker Cam Erving. Erving is a former Cowboy and, respectfully, just a guy.
5) Lions safety DeShon Elliott. Given his time with the Lions—and a defense that seems to put up 35 points at the drop of a hat—this isn’t all that impressive.
6) Army running back Antonio Gibson. Washington’s front office is on record as rejecting the desire to deal Gibson. (We’ll throw Cleveland’s Kareem Hunt in this category — a name to explore, at least.)
7) Falcons center Matt Hennessy. A deep piece for the Bills? Sure. But keep in mind that entering Week 8, the Falcons – amazingly enough – are in first place in the NFC South… which means they have no reason to sell.
8) Broncos receiver Jerry Jeudy. A 2020 first-round draft pick, Jeudy might be happy to get out of the Denver mess. The Broncos, however, would be wise to question a high trade value here.
There are Cowboys stories here but we’d say there’s more smoke than fire.
By the way, and this goes for Cooks and the Steelers’ Chase Claypool and maybe for free agent Odell Beckham Jr., too: We wonder if the Bills’ front office is bothered by the idea the addition of Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis as. the general public is clear?
9) Bears running back David Montgomery. He is in the final year of his new contract, so it will be a list. Do the Bills need to add a “power back”? And if so, isn’t there one in the mothballed Zack Moss?
10) 49ers safety Tarvarius Moore. The 49ers see themselves as competitors, not “traders” – as evidenced by their willingness to pay a price for Christian McCaffrey that the Bills can’t afford.
OCT 30 AIKMAN SEES THE NEED A member of the Dallas Cowboys “family” is trying to help with an idea – and his name is “Troy Aikman.”
“You better have an offense in today’s NFL if you’re going to win games,” Aikman told TMZ when asked if his old team should look to add have a wide space. “The way you do crime is you have weapons, and you have to have more than one or two.”
Is there a sense for Aikman today that Michael Irvin for another idea, the signing of free agent running back Odell Beckham Jr.?
Turns out that’s Irvin’s real son. Aikman has no name; he just got an educated guess. A trade deal, Aikman said, “will certainly help them.”
Worth noting: Aikman gave these comments about Dallas “needing an offense” before the Cowboys beat the Bears 49-29 and moved to 6-2 in the bye.
OCT 26 SINGLE ONE? We should mention that Dallas’ trade for Johnathan Hankins preceded the Eagles’ trade for Robert Quinn. So no, Dallas didn’t “respond” to the “hand race” there. But that doesn’t mean that some aren’t calling for another answer, especially the rumors that Philly might pursue Saints’ best running back Alvin Kamara.
