Despite Dallas Cowboys supporters’ expectations that their team would make a big splash to maintain their faint hopes of making the playoffs, the NFL trade deadline passed with just one small deal.
Wide receiver Jonathan Mingo, who has only caught 12 passes for 121 yards in nine games this season, was traded to the Cowboys by the Carolina Panthers in exchange for a seventh-round pick and a fourth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Dak Prescott, the starting quarterback for the 3-5 Cowboys, will be sidelined for a few weeks after suffering a hamstring injury during a Week 9 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.
Prescott’s prospects of returning at all this season would be severely harmed if he were placed on injured reserve and required surgery.
Given how difficult their remaining schedule is, it appears that the Cowboys will miss the playoffs, despite many people’s doubts at the beginning of the season that they would be a very good team.
