"Cowboys cornerback, Kaiir Elam was released by Dallas in a surprising move yesterday. Dallas made the trade for the former first round pick in the offseason with the Bills. Some folks thought he would play a major part on the defense, while others, like myself, from the jump thought it was a waste of a trade, just like it was when Jerry Jones made the move for Payton Turner."
"In the 10 games Elam was with the Cowboys, he started seven. The Cowboys still currently have the 30th-ranked pass defense. Elam's final stats with Dallas was 25 completions, 372 yards surrendered and three touchdowns. The worst stat of all, though, is that opposing quarterbacks managed to have a 105.0 passer rating when throwing in his direction. Pro Football Focus rated him 61st out of 108 cornerbacks."
Kaiir Elam was released by the Dallas Cowboys after 10 games. Dallas acquired Elam in an offseason trade with the Buffalo Bills that cost a 2025 fifth-round pick and a 2026 seventh-round pick. Elam started seven games and surrendered 372 yards on 25 completions with three touchdowns. Opposing quarterbacks registered a 105.0 passer rating targeting him. Pro Football Focus ranked him 61st of 108 cornerbacks. The Cowboys' pass defense ranks 30th. With Trevon Diggs injured, the secondary will feature DaRon Bland, Caelen Carson and returning cornerback Shavon Revel Jr. Upcoming opponents include the Eagles, Chiefs and Lions.
