Cowboys sign Von Miller to bolster pass rush amid roster changes

The Dallas Cowboys signed veteran linebacker Von Miller on August 18, 2026, following a trade that saw them part ways with Micah Parsons. Miller, 37, previously played for the Washington Commanders, where he recorded 10 sacks last season. The Cowboys are looking to improve their pass rush, having struggled with Rashan Gary and Donovan Ezeiruaku. Miller’s experience and ability to pressure quarterbacks on third down are expected to enhance their defensive strategy, especially with the addition of rookie Caleb Downs, who will benefit from Miller's presence on the field.
