Cowboys trade for Broderick Jones to strengthen offensive tackle depth
Summary

The Dallas Cowboys have acquired Broderick Jones from the Pittsburgh Steelers in exchange for a 2027 third- and sixth-round pick. Jones, a former first-round selection in the 2023 NFL Draft, struggled in his first two seasons, particularly with pass protection. After suffering a neck injury last season, he was fighting for a roster spot during training camp. The Cowboys aim to maximize his athletic potential as they seek depth at tackle amidst concerns over his past performances.
