The Cowboys’ secondary has been abysmal through the first two months of the season, so there is good reason to believe there could (and should) be a massive reshuffling of the deck during the offseason. InsideTheStar.com takes a look at who could stay and who could go when the team decides to make some important moves in the coming months.

“The group that should stay in Dallas is minimal, and for good reason. Of course, the recently-extended Bland will be back in 2026 as the clear-cut CB1; his new $90M+ price tag cements that. He is joined by two young corners in 2024 draftee Caelen Carson and Revel. On the leave list, we have an extensive group, headlined by Diggs. Aside from Diggs, guys like Josh Butler, Trikweze Bridges, Kaiir Elam, and Reddy Steward all need to go on the account of them not being very good.”
