The Dallas Cowboys are increasing their wide receiver depth in anticipation of an eventual parting with NFL All-Pro George Pickens, adding former Buccaneers fifth-round pick Tyler Johnson. Johnson, who totaled 12 receptions for the Jets last season, joins a room that already includes veteran Marquez Valdes-Scantling, marking the second wideout and second Super Bowl champion the Cowboys have added this week.
Key details:
– Tyler Johnson was a 5th-round pick (No. 161 overall) by Tampa Bay in 2020 and contributed as a role player during the regular season and playoffs on the Buccaneers’ Super Bowl-winning campaign.
– The Cowboys’ recent signings reflect a strategic push to fortify their receiving corps in preparation for roster changes at the position.
Key takeaways:
– The Cowboys are actively stockpiling receivers to mitigate potential losses and maintain depth.
– Johnson’s NFL experience and Super Bowl pedigree add veteran reliability to Dallas’ receiving group.
