The Dallas Cowboys have lost veteran nickel cornerback Jourdan Lewis, who signed a three-year, $30 million contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars, marking him as the NFL's highest-paid nickel corner. This comes after the Cowboys had prioritized re-signing him amidst their free agency activities. Lewis's departure leaves the Cowboys dangerously thin at cornerback, with only five players on the roster. They may need to explore options for reinforcements as injuries have already plagued the position group.
“Jourdan Lewis, who has been with the Cowboys since he was drafted in the third round in 2017, has agreed to terms on a three-year, $30 million deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars, making him the highest-paid nickel in the NFL.”
“Lewis will now earn $10 million per year salary after a 2024 season that saw him play some of the best ball of his career, including 10 interceptions and 386 tackles during his time with the Cowboys.”
“With depth already a problem in 2024 and Lewis departing for Jacksonville, the Cowboys find themselves with just five cornerbacks on their roster, putting them in a dangerous position.”
