“Cowboys Eye Wide Receiver Help After Key Injuries, Bring in Denzel Mims and Dante Pettis for Workouts”
The Dallas Cowboys secured a crucial 20-17 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 5, improving their record to 3-2. However, it’s evident that they need reinforcement at the wide receiver position. CeeDee Lamb remains the top target, but the receiving corps was weakened when Brandin Cooks was placed on injured reserve due to a knee infection.
Jalen Tolbert had a standout performance against the Steelers, but beyond him, the depth is thin. While the Cowboys aren’t pursuing a star receiver like Davante Adams, they are looking to strengthen their roster. This led them to bring in former New York Jets second-round pick Denzel Mims for a visit. The Cowboys also worked out wide receiver Dante Pettis. Mims, drafted in the second round in 2020, has struggled to find his footing in the NFL, despite his potential.
Though these players aren’t the biggest names, they could contribute to the Cowboys’ offense if signed, and it will be interesting to see if any moves are made.
