Cowboys Bolster Secondary With Addition of Cobie Durant
The Dallas Cowboys agreed to a one-year, $5.5 million deal with free-agent cornerback Cobie Durant on Thursday, his agent told Todd Archer of ESPN. DaRon Bland (foot) is coming back from foot surgery, and second-year corner Shavon Revel continues to learn on the job after missing the first nine games of his rookie season last year while recovering from a torn ACL, so Dallas could use the help at cornerback. Durant spent the last four seasons playing for the Los Angeles Rams. He has seven career interceptions, with two of them returned for touchdowns. The 28-year-old tied his career-high with three picks last season. Durant was expendable in L.A. after the Rams acquired Trent McDuffie from the Kansas City Chiefs last week. The Cowboys also signed safety Jalen Thompson in free agency, and Durant will give Dallas' secondary flexibility, as he has the ability to move inside to play the nickel spot, if needed. The former fourth-rounder in 2022 out of South Carolina State has 141 career tackles (96 solo), two sacks, six tackles for loss, five QB hits, 26 pass breakups, a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery in 61 games (39 starts).
