The Cowboys are adding depth to their linebacker position by re-signing Damien Wilson, according to Todd Archer of ESPN. Wilson played for the Cowboys from 2015 to 2019 before spending time with the Chiefs, Jaguars, and Panthers. Despite serving a four-game suspension last season for violating the Personal Conduct Policy, Wilson is back in action.
Wilson was originally drafted by the Cowboys as a fourth-round pick in 2015, and his return marks the fourth outside free agent that the team has signed this offseason. The addition of Wilson provides depth at the linebacker position and also adds experienced players to the Cowboys’ roster as they prepare for the upcoming season.
The Cowboys’ decision to re-sign Wilson comes just two days after they drafted Marist Liufau in the third round. This move indicates that the team is focused on strengthening their linebacker group and adding depth to their defense. With Wilson’s experience and talent, he will be an asset to the team as they prepare for another successful season.
