Cowboys Draft Safety Caleb Downs | Dallas Cowboys News
Description
The Cowboys pulled off a blockbuster trade to land safety Caleb Downs, a three-year college standout who earned All-American honors twice and won the prestigious Jim Thorpe Award. After transferring from Alabama to Ohio State, Downs became a versatile defensive weapon, excelling as both a safety and nickel corner — a perfect fit for Dallas’s scheme. With elite coverage skills and the rare ability to impact every level of the field, he’s poised to be a game-changer from day one. His arrival marks the first time in 24 years the Cowboys drafted a safety in the first round — and he’s already got the hardware to match Roy Williams, the last Cowboys safety to win the award. Training camp will be his proving ground, but the ceiling? Sky-high.
