One of the biggest stories of the NFL offseason in 2026 was the Maxx Crosby saga, which saw the Raiders and Ravens agree to terms on a deal to send Crosby to Baltimore in exchange for Las Vegas receiving two first round picks. In the end, the Ravens backed out of the deal after reports that Crosby had failed his physical.<\/p>\n
At the NFL Owner\u2019s Meetings on Tuesday, Cowboys owner\/GM Jerry Jones was asked about the process of the deal. While responding, he mentioned that Dallas was in the mix to try and acquire Crosby, but it didn\u2019t work out. Could that mean the Cowboys could potentially re-visit a potential trade with Las Vegas?<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t anticipate, standing here right now, revisiting that situation. I don\u2019t anticipate it. Is it possible? Yes.\u201d Jones said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe would\u2019ve basically looked at the same conditions with a physical. And as you know, we were in on making an offer for him, So he would\u2019ve come to Dallas so we\u2019ll all just guess what would\u2019ve happened.\u201d<\/p>\n
As for the fallout of how the trade went for Baltimore and Las Vegas, Jones didn\u2019t see any buried facts about the situation.<\/p>\n
\u201cReally it\u2019s pretty simple for me, There\u2019s no hidden item there. You have to pass a physical. You have to pass a physical,\u201d Jones said. \u201cWe\u2019ve never completed an agreement until the player passes a physical, That implies yours, being your doctors and trainers and everyone involved, get to take a look at it. That goes with the territory.\u201d<\/p>\n
So far this offseason, the biggest move Dallas has made in the pass rush department was acquiring OLB Rashan Gary from the Packers. Dallas has second-round pick Donovan Ezeiruaku going into his second year, re-signed Sam Williams, and brought back Tyrus Wheat from the Lions. Does he believe the Cowboys still need pass rush help?<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve got to get it from some that we didn\u2019t last year, from some of the players we didn\u2019t have, plus some of the plays that we acquired this off-season,\u201d Jones said. \u201cThe idea that that\u2019s not a premium place to be, especially for the draft, then it would be one of our top areas of interest: the pressure.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One of the biggest stories of the NFL offseason in 2026 was the Maxx Crosby saga, which saw…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":230089,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[102,932,104,103],"class_list":{"0":"post-230088","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-dallas","8":"tag-dallas","9":"tag-dallas-cowboys-news","10":"tag-dallas-headlines","11":"tag-dallas-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/230088","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=230088"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/230088\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/230089"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=230088"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=230088"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=230088"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
