FRISCO, Texas — The Dallas Cowboys<\/a> have made another free agent addition to their secondary, agreeing to a one-year deal with Cobie Durant<\/a>, who spent the past four seasons with the Los Angeles Rams<\/a>, sources told ESPN on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The Cowboys have a cornerback need with DaRon Bland<\/a> coming back from foot surgery and second-year cornerback Shavon Revel<\/a> learning on the job after sitting out the first nine games as a rookie while recovering from a torn ACL.<\/p>\n

Durant has seven career interceptions, returning two for touchdowns. He had three in 2025, matching his career high, but the Rams remade their cornerback position by trading for Trent McDuffie<\/a> and then signing his Kansas City Chiefs<\/a> teammate Jaylen Watson<\/a> at the start of free agency.<\/p>\n

Durant has some position flexibility by moving inside to the nickel spot if needed. The Cowboys signed safety Jalen Thompson<\/a> to a three-year, $33 million deal and can use him at times in their nickel spot.<\/p>\n

The Cowboys have picks No. 12 and No. 20 in the first round of the draft and could still look to add a cornerback on Day 1. They met with a number of cornerbacks at the NFL scouting combine recently and are expected to have some come to The Star for predraft visits as well.<\/p>\n
