It doesn't look like Davante Adams will be a Dallas Cowboy any time soon. During an appearance on 94.1 San Antonio Sports Star , Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said that he doesn't think the team has any interest in the wide receiver and that they are looking to use resources on other positions.
"No. I don't think there is anything to that. We just signed our No.
1 guy (CeeDee Lamb) and (Adams) is a No. 1 receiver," Jones said, per NFL insider Jordan Schultz. "When you have the challenges cap-wise that we have, that would be a long putt for us.
" Adams formally requested a trade from the Las Vegas Raiders last week. There is an out in his contract following the 2024 season, so he could theoretically be utilized as a rental and be released in the offseason. Dallas is currently 2-2 and do appear to have some issues.
However, a big contract to CeeDee Lamb solidified the top of the receiver depth chart and the team may elect to use its cap space to fix other holes. Dallas has $23 million in available cap space, per Over The Cap . Adams has a cap hit of $25.
3 million in 2024, so some maneuvering would have to be done to bring him in anyway. Jones comments show that the team may look to address needs on defense or the rushing attack. The money could also be saved for an eventual extension to Micah Parsons.
Another talented wide receiver would be a luxury for the team, not a necessity. With this in mind, it looks like the team will pass..
