Cowboys News: Longhorn LB replaces Hard Knocks star on roster ahead of camp

2022 predictions for Cowboys cornerbacks, a boost to the linebackers and how Dalton Schultz’s Dallas tenure may not be coming to a close. | From @CDBurnett7

The Cowboys finally made a move to address linebacker depth. Even if it’s not a flashy signing, Dallas brought in former Texas Longhorn Malik Jefferson to boost the position. With deadline for tight end Dalton Schultz and the Cowboys to come to a long-term agreement on Friday, it seems he will play the 2022 season on the franchise tag. Even then, this might not be his last season in Dallas. See where the rising tight end stacks up in ESPN’s rankings as well.

Looking at the cornerback position, can Nahshon Wright earn playing time at a position that saw little personnel change heading into 2022? Will Trevon Diggs maintain the interception numbers or will he mimic his style from the end of last season with more lockdown coverage? The answers to this and more in the latest News and Notes.
