In a unit filled with newcomers, injuries, and overall uncertainty, there&#8217;s also no surprise that Dallas is mentioned in free agency rumors that would calm these worries.<\/p>\n<p>In Bleacher Report&#8217;s latest prediction, writer Moe Moton picks the Cowboys to pursue veteran defensive back Kendall Fuller to fill multiple gaps in Dallas&#8217; cornerback situation.<\/p>\n<p>Fuller played in 11 games last season with the Miami Dolphins after he dealt with concussion and knee issues last season; he was released after missing the final two games of the year. The former third-round pick in 2016 registered 50 tackles and seven pass deflections on the season.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Dallas can bring in Fuller to shore up its pass coverage,&#8221; B\/R says. &#8220;He can line up outside to fill in for [Trevon] Diggs and transition into the slot if none of the young defensive backs impress in nickel duties. The 30-year-old has extensive experience playing on the boundary and as a nickelback.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Diggs is expected to miss a big chunk of the first half of the season as he works back from a second major knee surgery. Another injury concern is Dallas&#8217; coveted rookie third-round pick Shavon Revel Jr. who is rehabbing a torn ACL, but is expected to return sometime before Diggs.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the greatest potential Fuller adds to this Cowboys roster is his versatility, as long as his health allows.<\/p>\n<p>Dallas lost nickel corner Jourdan Lewis in free agency and currently may be without a replacement.<\/p>\n<p>With DaRon Bland and trade-get Kaiir Elam likely covering the outside, Fuller could slide in nicely in the slot and be rotated with a rangy body like Israel Mukuamu. His experience &#8211; something the Cowboys&#8217; current room lacks &#8211; also allows him to be shuffled to the boundary if there is a need for adjustments.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of where Fuller plays, the nine-year veteran has earned high praise from grading experts for his coverage skills. Pro Football Focus as recently as 2021 and 2023 graded Fuller a prestigious 80.0 overall. Last year, only eight cornerbacks hit that benchmark.<\/p>\n<p>Things might be slow on the Cowboys free-agency front right now, but if there is any intention to hit the market for extra depth, the cornerback position may be a top reason to do so.<\/p>\n<p>CowboysCountry.com has reported that Dallas might look at help here once we get to training camp.<\/p>\n<p>So file thus away \u2026<\/p>\n<p>Owner and general manager Jerry Jones could consider Fuller &#8211; who is ranked as the top cornerback free agent available by Over The Cap &#8211; as a smart investment to ease the tensions in Dallas&#8217; secondary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are multiple names on the market the Dallas Cowboys could solve their cornerback concerns with.
