Cowboys Set to Shock Fans with $21 Million Playmaker in Massive Trade Deal!

The Dallas Cowboys’ offense has struggled significantly in the 2024 season, with a current 3-3 record and no wins on home turf. With the trade deadline approaching on November 5, the team may look to make some moves to strengthen their roster.

One of the Cowboys’ biggest concerns has been their rushing game, which has underperformed this season. Colton Edwards of FanSided has pointed out that the Cowboys could be a potential landing spot for Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner. According to Edwards, the Cowboys may be the only NFL team with an urgent need at running back, and acquiring a player like Conner could provide the consistency and three-down capability that could support quarterback Dak Prescott.

The Cowboys’ running stats underscore their struggles. They rank last in the league for rushing yards, yards per carry, and rushing touchdowns. They also remain the only team without a single run of over 20 yards. This lack of ground production has constrained their offense, making it easier for opposing defenses to focus on stopping the passing game, knowing that Dallas poses minimal threat on the ground.

James Conner, a two-time Pro Bowler, signed a three-year, $21 million contract with Arizona in 2022. However, with the Cardinals’ current performance and Conner’s age, the team may be open to trading him. Edwards also explained that with Arizona holding a 3-4 record and not quite built for a playoff push, they could be interested in trading Conner as part of their long-term rebuilding plan. Conner’s contract situation and upcoming free agency in 2024 make it a timely opportunity for such a move.
