Dante Fowler Jr.

Cowboys signed EDGE Dante Fowler Jr., formerly of the Commanders, to a one-year contract.

Per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the deal is worth “up to” $8 million. Fowler Jr. signed a one-year deal with the Commanders last offseason after spending two seasons in Dallas. He tallied 10.5 sacks and now returns to a Cowboys defense looking to replace pass-rush production following the departure of Demarcus Lawrence. Fowler Jr. was a successful part-time player in his previous Cowboys stint, totaling 10 sacks despite never playing more than half of the team’s defensive snaps in a game. He should start for Dallas this time around.
