Cowboys Buried Houston Despite His Numbers
Description
James Houston’s elite production—5.5 sacks and 19 pressures in just a quarter of defensive snaps—should’ve earned him a bigger role, but in Dallas, it’s landed him fifth on the depth chart and a trade suggestion from Bleacher Report. After trading Micah Parsons for assets, the Cowboys flooded the pass rush with nine defensive ends, burying Houston despite his standout efficiency. His stats would make him a starter elsewhere, but with his contract expiring, the Cowboys may prefer a late-round pick over letting him walk. If they trade him, it could signal to the league that even elite output in limited snaps doesn’t guarantee a roster spot when depth is prioritized over individual performance.
