At cornerback, when you look past those two big names and <a href=\"https:\/\/insidethestar.com\/dallas-cowboys-select-shavon-revel-with-76th-pick\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">injured rookie Shavon Revel<\/a>, it is a wide-ranging collection of little-known, borderline NFL players. The picture at safety isn\u2019t much brighter. Despite their experience, veterans Malik Hooker and Donovan Wilson, who will be 30 and 31 by the start of 2026, represent two positions that need a full-scale reset. It will be the end of the road in Dallas for a number of these guys, so let\u2019s look over who should stay and who should go in the Cowboys\u2019 secondary this offseason.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">Cornerback Shakeup: Former All-Pro, Low-Cost Depth Pieces Out Of Town<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">Who Stays: Caelen Carson, DaRon Bland, Shavon Revel.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">Who Leaves: Josh Butler, Trevon Diggs, Trikweze Bridges, Kaiir Elam, Reddy Stewart.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">The group that should stay in Dallas is minimal, and for good reason. Of course, the recently-extended Bland will be back in 2026 as the clear-cut CB1; his new $90M+ price tag cements that. He is joined by two young corners in 2024 draftee Caelen Carson and Revel. Carson, a star at Wake Forest, has yet to show the same skills in the NFL, though you could argue that has had more to do with injuries. Either way, Dallas won\u2019t move on from him so quickly with their massive weakness at the position.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">Revel is just as obvious as Bland in the keep department: he is young, carries sky-high potential, and was a big investment with the 76th pick. On the leave list, we have an extensive group, headlined by Diggs. The former DPOY candidate is all but done in Dallas; his injuries, performance, and issues with the organization have made that fact very clear. It will also save money to cut him this offseason.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Dallas faithful should be prepared for a major overhaul of their defense this offseason.
