Dak Prescott does not want to see his defense take a step back in 2022, but it appears to be that way after Randy Gregory backed out of a deal and signed with the Denver Broncos.
According to a report on Wednesday night, Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott did a heavy recruitment of Miller, but his team never made an offer.
“I’m told Dak Prescott put more effort into recruiting Von Miller than Cowboys management. Once Gregory signed with Denver, Miller had Dallas as his #1 destination. Dallas never made an offer. The Cowboys need someone in the locker room that understands what it takes to win a Super Bowl,” Newy Scruggs tweeted.
Von Miller signed a rather large deal with the Buffalo Bills and there is an argument that Dallas was wise to not go down that path.
However, the Cowboys desperately need to make sure their defense is top notch in 2022 if the team wants to have a chance to get into the playoffs and make a deep run.
But in an offseason where turmoil has seemed to follow them at every turn this would be at the very least bad optics for the Dallas Cowboys front office with regards to how they handle their football operations.
