"The Dallas Cowboys made a huge splash at the NFL trade deadline. Trading for an All-Pro defensive tackle like Quinnen Williams was the type of big move the team had been craving for a while. According to NFL Jersey Numbers, Williams has decided on his jersey number with the Cowboys. He will wear No. 92, which was last assigned to Adedayo Odeleye."
"Now, he has moved from one dysfunctional organization to another, but his chances of making the playoffs are clearly better now. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has admitted that he hasn't always made the best decisions, and given his age, the 83-year-old is trying to turn things around and win another Super Bowl before it's too late. Dallas needs much more than Williams to do so, but this was certainly a big step in the right direction."
"The Cowboys are giving up the fourth-most rushing yards per game this season, and they hope that Williams can help fellow tackle Kenny Clark improve the interior of the defense. They also acquired veteran linebacker Logan Wilson from the Cincinnati Bengals, and with DeMarvion Overshown and Shavon Revel Jr. set to make their season debuts sometime soon, the Dallas defense may finally be able to complement its high-powered offense."
The Cowboys traded for All-Pro defensive tackle Quinnen Williams, who selected jersey No. 92 with Dallas after previously wearing No. 95 with the New York Jets. Williams reportedly grew frustrated with the Jets' losing culture but remained professional and continued playing through his discontent. The move improves Dallas' chances of reaching the playoffs and addresses a run-defense problem; the Cowboys surrender the fourth-most rushing yards per game. The team also added veteran linebacker Logan Wilson, and DeMarvion Overshown and Shavon Revel Jr. are expected to debut soon. Owner Jerry Jones, 83, seeks roster changes to pursue another Super Bowl.
