Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has expressed continued confidence in his team’s ability to compete for a playoff spot this season, despite a challenging start to the 2023 campaign. The team, which currently sits at 2-3-1, has faced significant defensive struggles, ranking second to last in points allowed per game. Jones has not ruled out the possibility of exploring a trade to bolster the defense, signaling the team’s willingness to make strategic moves in the offseason.
Jones emphasized that while the team is in a tough position, they’re still ‘still in it’ and have the potential to turn things around. He highlighted the importance of addressing the defensive issues, noting that a strong defense is crucial for success in the NFL. The Cowboys have a history of making significant trades to improve their roster, and Jones has indicated that this approach is still on the table.
With the season only in its early stages, the Cowboys have time to make adjustments. Jones has encouraged his players to stay focused and continue working hard, while also acknowledging the need for external help in certain areas. The team’s management is closely monitoring the defensive performance and will likely make a decision on potential trades in the coming weeks.
