"Wilson was acquired on the day of the 2025 trade deadline (a little bit before Quinnen Williams) and for the low cost of a seventh-round pick in the upcoming NFL draft. It never really worked out for him as he was unable to play his way onto the field after battling a calf injury, and with a new defensive coordinator in place in Christian Parker plus the cap savings that this move provides, the writing was on the wall."
"It should be noted that the trade was hardly a failure for the Cowboys. They paid a late draft pick to get a look at a player, they got one, and now they are moving on before being financially tied to him. That is the proper way to assess and try to improve your roster, and sometimes you are going to have misses."
Logan Wilson was waived by the Dallas Cowboys after they acquired him on the 2025 trade deadline for a seventh-round draft pick, a move made shortly before acquiring Quinnen Williams. Wilson battled a calf injury and was unable to earn playing time, preventing him from appearing on the field. The arrival of new defensive coordinator Christian Parker and the salary-cap savings from releasing Wilson contributed to the decision. The Cowboys treated the transaction as a low-cost evaluation: they surrendered a late pick to assess a player, received that evaluation, and moved on before becoming financially committed. Roster experiments naturally include misses.
