"Wilson has a long history of being a leader and defensive playmaker during his time in Cincinnati, something Dallas has lacked at linebacker all season. Williams is one of the top five players at his position and gives the Cowboys defense a fortified look at defensive tackle for the first time in over a decade. As both players get ready for their debuts on Monday night against the Las Vegas Raiders, their arrival might not be enough to save the 2025 season,"
"Before Dallas made any trades, we noted five ways they could improve their defense, either by adding or subtracting at certain positions. One of the areas of focus was at linebacker, where getting a proven veteran to help stabilize the position should have been a priority. Initially, that player was supposed to be Kenneth Murray, whom the Cowboys traded for in the offseason and has been in the league for six seasons."
Dallas acquired linebacker Logan Wilson for a seventh-round pick and defensive tackle Quinnen Williams for a first- and a second-round pick to improve the defense. Wilson brings proven production, instincts against the run and leadership that could stabilize the linebacker group after inconsistent play from Kenneth Murray. Williams ranks among the top five at his position and provides a fortified interior defensive tackle presence not seen in over a decade. Both players are set to debut Monday night against the Las Vegas Raiders. Their additions may not rescue the 2025 season but generate significant optimism for next season and beyond.
