Cowboys engage in ongoing trade discussions for Jordyn Brooks

The Dallas Cowboys are reportedly exploring a trade for Miami Dolphins linebacker Jordyn Brooks, whose performance last season included 183 tackles and an All-Pro selection. Although Brooks recently signed a three-year, $51.3 million extension, a closer look at the contract reveals a manageable base salary for 2026, which allows Dallas to consider this move. With their defense needing improvement, the Cowboys are under pressure to make impactful changes, especially given past struggles to secure playoff positioning. The team is also monitoring the development of linebacker Sam Williams, who is impressing during training camp and could bolster the defensive lineup this season.
