The Cowboys are entering a crucial part of the offseason, with just three months to flip the long-standing stereotype: that they can’t win big games or make a deep playoff run. Jerry Jones now faces the challenge of fixing internal issues and restoring America’s Team to greatness. The Cowboys haven’t won a Super Bowl in 30 years. Some might call it a curse, but it’s more likely a structural problem—and that’s why the latest update matters. Jerry Jones is reportedly preparing another offseason move.
To start, the Cowboys made two impressive deals this offseason. The first was the Joe Milton trade with the Patriots. It was a smart move, as the franchise won’t suffer a major financial loss if Milton doesn’t pan out in Dallas. Then came the George Pickens trade. The Steelers were eager to move the controversial wide receiver, and Jones jumped at the opportunity to bring him in.
Now, another potential move—perhaps not as big, but still significant—is in the pipeline. It all started when Dallas reporter Joseph Hoyt tweeted, “Delayed at the airport… I’ll answer any #Cowboys questions if you have them.” One fan asked if the Cowboys were done adding rookies and veterans. Hoyt responded, noting that Stephen Jones reiterated the team’s player acquisition process is “a 365-day thing.”
The conversation continued when another fan asked, “I know injuries are already a question at corner, but would they entertain signing Asante Samuel Jr. to play nickel? Could be a cheap one-year deal at this point.” Hoyt dropped a noteworthy update, saying, “Sounds like there could be some time before he signs somewhere.” Well, that’s a possibility.

Asante Samuel Jr., a second-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, played for the Los Angeles Chargers from 2021 to 2024. Whether the Cowboys pursue him remains to be seen—but in a season where every move counts, even a one-year deal could make a difference.
The cornerback is currently a free agent as he ended his four-year, $7,222,946 contract with the Bolts. And the most important thing is that he is still available in free agency. In his four years of NFL career, Asante Samuel Jr has played 50 games, made 176 total tackles, out of which 148 are solo. Apart from that, he has made one fumble recovery and six interceptions. But as he is expected to sign a new deal with the Cowboys, the franchise may lose an offensive weapon.
Jerry Jones’ franchise may cut Javonte Williams
Before diving into the potential departure of Javonte Williams from Dallas, it’s worth highlighting a shocking stat: not a single Cowboys running back scored a rushing touchdown in the entire 2024 season (per Heavy.com). Let that sink in. Painful for any team, especially for the owner and loyal fans.
That kind of performance is unacceptable in a franchise with championship aspirations. And it might be the reason the Cowboys are considering cutting ties with Javonte Williams. Sometimes, the axe falls not just because of one player’s performance, but because the whole unit needs a reset.

In the 2024 season, while playing for the Denver Broncos, he recorded 139 rushing attempts for 513 yards and scored 4 touchdowns — a solid contribution on the ground. The former Broncos running back landed with a new team in March 2025, hoping for a fresh start. However, just two months into his tenure, his roster spot is already in jeopardy. Reports suggest that internal discussions have begun. And the running back may soon be looking for a new home once again.
Let’s see which explosive, game-changing running back will end up in Jerry Jones’s star-studded locker room! With the draft moves, trade rumors, and surprise signings flying around, the suspense is real. Cowboys Nation, keep your eyes peeled and your energy high. This offseason could shake up the backfield in a big way! Stay tuned, because the next big play might be just around the corner!
