Veteran defensive end Dante Fowler Jr. had a message for Dallas Cowboys fans after rejoining the team during NFL free agency.

Will the Cowboys be serious players in free agency this week? History tells us they will not be. But their NFC East rivals, the Philadelphia Eagles, spent some money a year ago and look where it got them.

Fowler spent last season with the Commanders under Dan Quinn, the DC in Dallas during Fowler’s first stint with the Cowboys.

The Dallas Cowboys are bringing back a familiar face to help bolster their defense in 2025, agreeing to terms with veteran pass rusher Dante Fowler on a one-year, $8 million deal, according to NFL Media.

NFL free agency began on Monday with the legal negotiating window, and we've already seen a ton of offseason action -- including a few surprising moves. Sam Darnold, Justin Fields, DK Metcalf, Davante Adams, Josh Sweat, Milton Williams, Joey Bosa and D.J. Reed are among the biggest names who have changed teams via free agent signings and trades.

Veteran pass rusher Dante Fowler is set for his second stint with the Cowboys. Fowler and the Cowboys agreed to a one-year contract today, according to multiple reports. The 30-year-old Fowler previously spent two seasons in Dallas in 2022 and 2023 before playing in Washington in 2024.

The Cowboys reuniting with Dante Fowler in free agency all but guarantees the departure of fan favorite Carl Lawson.
