Report: Cowboys Signing Wr Marquez Valdes-Scantling

Valdes-Scantling brings 3,686 career receiving yards and a 16.8 yards-per-catch average to a Dallas offense seeking more speed.

  • On Monday, April 27, the Dallas Cowboys agreed to a one-year deal with wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling, adding depth to their receiving corps following the 2026 NFL Draft.
  • The move addresses roster uncertainty as George Pickens has yet to sign his franchise tag, and the Cowboys halted long-term contract extension discussions with their star receiver.
  • Valdes-Scantling, a 31-year-old two-time Super Bowl champion, leads the league in career yards per reception at 16.8, providing proven experience as a deep threat.
  • Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones stated on April 23 the team had "no intention of moving George," emphasizing expectations for Pickens to sign his tender.
  • Valdes-Scantling joins a receiving room featuring CeeDee Lamb, Jonathan Mingo, KaVontae Turpin, and Anthony Smith, where he will serve as a vertical threat in the passing game.
