“Nothing lasts forever in the NFL.” The Dallas Cowboys understand this all too well, and this offseason, they’re facing some tough decisions. With the team striving to stay competitive, major changes could be on the way. From the quarterback position to the coaching staff, it’s clear that Jerry Jones and company have their work cut out for them. But one of the most pressing questions surrounding the team right now is the future of DeMarcus Lawrence. Will he continue to anchor the Cowboys’ defense, or is it time for a fresh start?
Recently, Lawrence’s agent gave fans some insight into his situation, and it brought a mix of good and bad news. The good news? “He’s 100% healthy.” That’s a big deal for a player who’s dealt with injuries in the past. But here’s the kicker: “The bad news, he’s a free agent, right?” And that means the Cowboys could lose him, despite all he’s done for the team over the years. For Cowboys fans who have grown to love Lawrence, the possibility of him leaving is a tough pill to swallow.

As a leader on the defense, Lawrence’s presence has been invaluable. But with the team needing to make moves to keep up in the competitive NFC, could this be the end of his run in Dallas? The next few weeks will determine whether the Cowboys can lock him down for the future or if they’ll have to say goodbye to a key piece of their defense. Well, amidst all this, there is certainly some good news for Jones and the Cowboys.
Tom Pelissero took to X to share a piece of news that will certainly excite the fans: “The NFL and NFLPA have agreed to a 2025 salary cap of $279.2 million per club, per source. Another record high.” Now, with more cap space on the horizon, the Cowboys may have the opportunity to make some crucial moves to keep Lawrence, or potentially bring in new talent to fill the gap if he moves on. The future is still uncertain, but things are definitely looking up for the Cowboys’ financial situation.
